Here's some artwork.


After asking the Art Director I can now show you some artwork for the BBC audiobook (see previous post). The top image is my illustration done hopefully in a similar style to the two below. After studying the previous covers I decided to work up an acrylic underpainting to imitate the use of ink and then block in with watercolour.

The Further Adventures Of Sherlock Holmes Audiobook

I have no idea when this audiobook will be released, it is on pre-order at the moment but I'm unashamedly going to get a copy myself because I did the cover illustration. Maybe that's a bit self-indulgent but it is my first cover.

I was asked to create an illustration in the style of the previous three books in the series. This was something I've never done before but enjoyed the challenge immensely.
