Heart of Darkness






Graphite and Col-Erase on paper


Working on a book cover project for class. I chose "Heart of Darkness" by Joseph Conrad. Most of the copies of HOD I have seen have boring covers. So I am excited about bringing a fresh look to the cover. The book is pretty physiological, and with that in mind I decided the character Kurtz would be perfect. I am trying to capture something with impact, mystery, and a little violence. It feels good to let out the brutal side a little while working on this. Stay tuned for the finished product, should be done by next week.

Leave me comments about what you think about the direction.

as the ones that seem most harmless are often the ones to fear most, i think the direction you ended up with was perfect for heart of darkness.
