And I'm just so excited by what she developed for me that I've been hooting and hollering and jumping around ever since I first saw it. And maybe I have dropped a few tears. And giggled in inappropriate places.
Pssssst - it's up there |
By the way, Lisa is a phenomenal artist. Here is her Paper Wasp:
And her Dogbane Beetle:
My cover concept artist, who worked with Lisa, is a writer as well as a book cover wizard. Her name is J. J. Makins, and she is the author of the novel, The King of Egypt.
I really had a dream team to develop the cover for Devil's Kitchen with my own Mana leaning out of the frame at the bottom, underneath that mysterious house. And this post is really a letter of thanks to two lovely, talented artists.
Thanks, Lisa! Thanks, J.J.!

Nice art.
I really like the color and texture of the water color paintings by LIsa.
Where'd you get the girl from with her hands crossed on her chest? I like her. Reminds me of the girl form the Addams Family.
Beautiful art, Lisa Daly! And Alison, I want a print copy of Devil's Kitchen when it comes out! :)
