It has a slight semblance to one of Gabriel Ba's works.
That is my opinion of course. xD
This is a really bold, very solid design. It's really dramatic and interesting to dig out a concept from it because it explains alot of things. It could be silence, it could be stillness, it could be sadness, it could be dejection. But either way, it's always genius.

Oh, it does! I never noticed when I did it but it does with the heavy blacks.
The book it's based on is also very strange and full of different concepts. It's worth a read!
Thank you for your awesome comments

I was amazed by this because it shows how your style of drawing could reach at such an extent. It looks very different from your other drawings, and this really proves your ingenuity, and your versatility in art. Completely blown away by this, really.
I'm interested. ^^ What's the book title? I'll look it up and be sure to read it.
You are very welcome.

City of Glass by Paul Auster. It's a post modern detective story, I suppose. It's published in the New York Trilogy books now I think, I couldn't find it on it's own except as a graphic novel!

Love how this came out, nice detail with the branches too, and this is a far better cover illustration than the one already on it! >D

lmao to be fair the current cover is probably from the 80s...

This style is probably my favourite of all the ones I've seen of you so far. Your lines are definitely getting smoother and I think you work better using a limited range of colours.
