The Golden Leap

in art •  7 years ago 

This is a book cover I was asked to do twice, the first time many years ago by the publisher. It was 1987, I was in art school in Stockholm - it's a Swedish book, a sci-fi novel by acclaimed author Bertil Martensson. It's available in English also, as "The Golden Leap".

The second time I was contacted by the author himself on Facebook, just a few years ago, he asked if I had a higher resolution version because he was making an electronic reprint. I told him I wanted to redo it from scratch, for free, and he accepted. :)
