Breath & Eucalyptus Covers

A series of book covers done for a 3-week sprint. Eucalyptus is a rich narrative filled with unexpected wisdom about art, feminine beauty, landscape, and language, whilst Breath is a rich and atmospheric coming-of-age tale. I wanted to convey the visual and thematic ideas behind both books simply with photography and basic shape illustration. Using Illustrator and originally sourced photography from parts of Australia, I succeeded in creating these themes. The ellipses form a wave like structure, along with showing the various shapes of Eucalyptus leaves. Along with the visual themes, the ellipses, blending of colours and photography display the themes of beauty and landscape, as well as the opulent atmosphere both books emanate.
