A quick bit of cover art done for Farm Boy - close to the final design, but not quite. The artist I have doing it is actually talented, but she’s also really, really busy! So in the mean time, this is my placeholder.
I do like very simple designs (LOVE Peter Mendelsund’s work!), and went with the wheat stalk partially because of the name and partially because of the saying that the highest blade of grass is the first to be cut.
In any case, it’s certainly more interesting to look at than the black-and-white, no?
