Moby Dick Cover

I will be offering prints of this soon so that is why the dimensions are so small! Beats an ugly watermark...

This I have been working on for a while, but I had to rush to get it done. This is for my library's benefit auction they have every year. I wanted to make "mock book covers" for some of my favorite books.

Hope you enjoy!

“We then turned over the book together, and I endeavored to explain to him the purpose of the printing, and the meaning of the few pictures that were in it. Thus I soon engaged his interest; and from that we went to jabbering the best we could about the various outer sights to be seen in this famous town. Soon I proposed a social smoke; and, producing his pouch and tomahawk, he quietly offered me a puff. And then we sat exchanging puffs from that wild pipe of his, and keeping it regularly passing between us. If there yet lurked any ice of indifference towards me in the Pagan’s breast, this pleasant, genial smoke we had, soon thawed it out, and left us cronies.”

Herman Melville - Moby Dick, chapter 10: “A Bosom Friend”
