78 Pretty Faces Scratchboard Book Covers Collection 01
The New edition rePrints of Gardner Francis Fox's 156 paperback novels will each don a new book cover design by Kurt Brugel. The black and white illustrations will be done on scratchboard and the originals are available for purchase. They can be purchased from Kurt Brugel’s official website.
7.5x7.5 softcover paperback book with 165 black & white pages.
This art book collects the first half (78) of the covers completed.
I chose scratchboard as my medium for its graphic punch. The book cover is responsible for giving the reader an initial lead-in for what the story is about. Having all of the book covers based on the same motif will also unify the library as a whole. There is enough of a challenge with doing 156 of anything in art, but to have to illustrate the contents of the book using a “pretty face”, well then we have something special in-store.
Here’s a quick flip through of the book.
The Collection can be purchased here from The Library.
You could also own one of the original scratchboard New Edition book cover illustration.
Each original scratchboard comes Framed. The original measures 6x6 and framed it measures 7.5x7.5
