In the novel The Seven Year Slip a young artist and a young chef fall in love over pie despite all the complications of their lives and relationship. I watercolored this entire cover by hand and put it into Illustrator to capture the main character’s love for the art form. Illustrating the pie was meant to represent the young man and the specificness of the kitchen reflects the details given in the book. The goal was to capture the good nature and sweetness of this romance book and exhibit that on the cover to catch the reader’s attention.
