Haroun And the Sea of Stories- Cover and Splash page

This assignment is from my Illustration II class last year. The assignment was to take a story and create a silhouetted cover and double page spread for it.


A cover for the story Haroun and the Sea of Stories. It's a good book, for kids and adults, mixing the art of stories with comedy, action and fantasy and creating an Arabian Nights-esc tale. You can look it up here: http://www.amazon.com/Haroun-Sea-Stories-Salman-Rushdie/dp/0140157379


And a splash page for the story. This is one of my favorite scenes from the book and was so much fun to draw. The text is a direct quote from the book.

Haroun and the Sea of Stories (C) Salman Rushdie

  1. Wow that's amazing really great, but the hoepoe was supposed to have an almost circular head, like one of those birds you'd see jumping around.
