A good brief this one, to design a puffin book cover for the reissue of Alices adventures in Wonderland. I took two approaches to this: firstly i looked at the illustration styles of Ralph Steadman and Quentin Blake and decided to try and use their chaotic styles to design a concept around the idea of a flamingo looking worrried as it is just about to be used as a croquet mallet. Still not happy with the layout on the flamingo, but its still needs a bit of work!
The second idea was based around keeping the cover in a style of the penguin covers of the fifties and sixties similar to Germano Facetti, using simple shapes and colour.
