    uniE621 Book Cover: Your Friend In Witchcraft
    This illustration was created for Kay Marlow Allen, who commissioned me to revamp the cover of their epistolary game 'Your Friend In Witchcraft'.

To create the textured patterns, I scanned scrapbook paper and masked them to the flatted elements. #illustrator #graphicdesigner…
