No ants

So I was asked to design the cover of a funny book about a woman who reincarnates as an ant
and has to climb up the animal-reincarnation ladder to get back to her family. She gets help
from a reincarnated cat and meets Buddha as a guinea pig.
But today I heard that the publisher decided not to continue working with me... :-(
Apparently the ideas that each of us has about the style of the cover are too far apart.

It's a shame because I started this project with a lot of enthousiasm and made many sketches
in different styles.

These 'sketches' were my personal favorites. Very different but I like them both.
It's sad that they'll never be used.

Oh well, there's always karma. ;-)

Six ants

I'm currently working on the cover of the Dutch edition of 'Mieses Karma', a book by
the German writer David Safier. It's a funny story about a careerwoman who dies and
reincarnates as an ant. By accumilating good karma she tries to reincarnate as a human
being to protect her family.

This is a photo of one of the 'sketches', but the final cover will probably not look
anything like this, since I made SIX design sketches and they're all different!
