This week I designed two book covers for National Bestselling author and friend Angela Benson. Angela didn't have a concrete idea about what she wanted for her covers; just something new and different. We went through several stock photo ideas before settling on these two photos from Dreamstime Stock Photos. We tried illustrations, floral designs and forest-y looks, but Angela loved Autumn Sunset Maple Leaves by Sarah Theophilis. After some searching we were able to pair it with Wheat field with Sunset by Mykhavio Palinchak.
Angela gave me lots of valuable input along the way and these covers are the end result of our collaborative effort. I think the covers offer a fresh face to Angela's Genesis House books--the Christy award finalist Awakening Mercy and the second edition of the series, Abiding Hope.
If you're a fan of Christian fiction and have not gotten the chance to read Angela's work, now is a good time. Look for these books to be published in e-book edition in the next week or so.
