JULY CONTEST: Design a book cover for the Wizard of Oz

@AnnieZyg20 thank you very much!!

Hello guys! Here is my entry for this months' topic. I've registered to svs fully just to be able to participate (it is my first time), and it was exactly the kick I needed and the motivation to push myself a little bit. I have done it traditionally entirely (mixed media, especially lots of gouache and watercolour) and the final retouches in photoshop. There are so many great entries already though, I'd be happy to know what you guys think. Everything here is extremely motivational and awesome and it is such a cool feeling to see different takes on the same topic !
Hugs from Vienna, Alexandra

@alex-hochreiter wow I really love the colors you choose!! The dynamic and composition is so good!
-
@Freya-Chakour ohh thank you so much !! i was wondering if i hadn't overdo it, because i think I suffer of what i like to call colorhunger :)) i ve been sketching on top of sketching trying to get the right proportions Ihad in my head since I've read about the contest. But I ve seen this piece for so long now I am not sure of anything anymore..

@Freya-Chakour oh wow, this is your entry ? it is so so good, one of my favourites ! i really like the composition you found a great place for the author name, and i like your scsare crow's fashion :))
also very dreamy vibe accomplished with these shades of pink and purple, i wouldn't have dared or thought about -
Wow I'm in awe, so many gorgeous entries!
Here's one of my two covers, didn't know which one to post so I flipped a coin.
-
@aprilshin LOVE!!!!
-
@jdubz You say grim, but considering how twisted the book gets in places I think it's just appropriate! At least that's what I told myself with my second cover.
Yours is awesome. -
@Megan-van-der-Berg This is really cool Megan!!

It's been a while since I've entered one of these, I've been playing around with a more traditional style. Excited to hear what you think/feedback. Thanks!
Wish you a singin’ dancin’ good time,

So many great designs, it’s really inspiring! I decided to give this a go quite late in the day and whilst I’m a bit iffy on it the podcast gave me a little kick up the bum to get it finished and just learn from it. Looking forward to August.
(Uh, I accidentally uploaded a very slightly earlier edit without the sign so I have swapped it out but if that isn’t allowed...well...uhh...judge me on the first edit? Both were in on time, thank you sorry, sorry)
