30 Covers, 30 Days 2011: Day 3 http://www.nanowrimo.org/en/forums/30-covers-30-days/threads/22675 Tim Kim Happy 3rd of November! At this point, your sea legs should just be getting under you. The waves of inspiration are rolling nicely, and the wind is filling your sails! Why not take a break and take a peek at today’s cover, designed by David High: <img src="http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lu29d9jX201r0x68m.jpg"><strong> Paper Roses</strong> by grenouille Sometimes the things we are looking for are not so far away… Paloma only knows her parents from one photograph. She’s spent years fighting to become part of her foster family. She’s longing for affection, real relationships and attention. Things that are so hard to find in a circus fighting for its own survival. Meeting a man who knew her mother turns Paloma’s life upside-down. It‘s the beginning of a long chain of events, of questioning her life’s values, of the strangest friendship of her life, and of a quest to find out who she really is. Why do a certain gang’s members recognize her on the street even though she’s never seen them before? Why doesn’t she resemble any of the people in the photograph? And why does the circus’ owner hate her so much? Every person she meets opens a new door to the past of her parents. But some doors should stay closed forever… <a href="http://www.highdzn.com" rel="nofollow">David High</a> hails originally from Miami, FL and has spent the last 20 years in New York City and it’s reach-by-train-whereabouts designing, illustrating, and art directing for the publishing, music, and cable television industries of both U.S. coasts.

I accidentally deleted a comment here while trying to reply. medlock, I think your comment said this: "Best one so far. Question though, are the novels already all picked for the 30 Day, 30 Covers?" My reply was going to be that we haven't yet picked all the covers, and will be continuing to pick through November! Sorry about that. I'll be updating our top post, too.

This shows what can be done by an artist by paying attention to the book blurb given to them, and matching the colours to the mood suggested. I am really impressed with the use of space, the lack of fear in using strong colours and contrast, and the balance used in knowing how much detail to include on a cover. This artist is right up there with my two other favourites, now! (books sounds great, too!)
