box jane austen
In this project, at the request of Novo Século publishing house, I developed five illustrateded covers in papercut and mixed techniques for a collection of three books written by Jane Austen, in addition to the Box cover and the Poster.
​
The illustrations explore the silhouettes of the main characters, in addition to conveying delicacy and sensitivity, which are present in the author's writing.

CREATION PROCESS
​
​
​
The process begins with a research for references and the creation of some thumbnails in a sketchbook, which will define the general lines of the cover layout. Then I choose the papers I will use, observing the combinations and contrasts between the colors, trying to match the concept and the story of the book.

Then, I start drawing on paper and cutting out the forms. Finally, in the end, I paint the characters. After the art on paper is ready, I photograph it, to better capture the effects of light and shadow, and treat the photo in Photoshop, correcting the imperfections of the cuts and adding some texts digitally.
