"Gypsies," 2010-01 ACORN Cover
Ink on paper, halftone wash.
This piece was actually created back in January of 2007, but the editor of THE AESTEL (the SCA’s kingdom of AEthelmearc) found it to be “too racy.” I really never understood why, but just submitted something else and shelved this one. Now, here we are, three years later, with a different kingdom and a different editor (being on my second cover for THE ACORN) and I thought, “Why not?”
The design was created with the intent of being a wrap-around front-and-back cover. By looking at where the masthead ends, it’s easier to imagine where the front half would end.
