Well, here is it. The cover for my book 'Drystone – A Life Rebuilt'.

The colours are bold because this isn't a quiet story. The stones aren't placed neatly because this story isn't neat.

Pre-orders now. Out August 7, 2025.

@kristiedegaris it’s beautiful!
@venite Thank you! I really like it too. I was working on it until this weekend. The colours remind me of grass, gorse, foxgloves/heather, stone and sky.
@kristiedegaris I love the typography as well. It’s a bit baffling how you can put so much symbolism in what remains a quite minimalist design.
@venite Ah thank you! Futura is a classic and I did have to play around a lot with the subtitle font and in the end did something a bit more custom. It's been interesting finding something in between what I normally like (very minimalist) and something the publisher also approves of.
