Description
I made a new art!Hey all! It's been slow on my end...you know...that job thing. But the job's been great and I've even shoehorned in a little freelance time
So this is the fruit of my labor: the cover-to-be of a children's book for Disney Publishing (which will be my first-ever-really-published-work-of-any-significance) based on the upcoming Prince of Persia movie. It's a choose your own adventure book staring Princess Tamina and it will be published on April 13th! Hooray!
If you are so inclined, it can be pre-ordered here: [link]
If you noticed a similarity to my Moby Dick cover from a little while ago, that's because they specifically asked that it be similar. But with Henna, and Hands, and Girls and Stuff.
Hope you guys like it, and thanks for watching!

Holy crap! Disney??? That's incredibly awesome! Way to go!
Anyway, the painting is gorgeous. I love the clean lines and the richness of the colors, particularly the gold and violet. Way to use your complements! The henna design is lovely. Keep up the awesome work. Maybe I'll walk into a bookstore and find this cover soon!

Hooray! It looks fantastic! I really like the colors you used - they're very evocative and rich without being garish. The hand's pose is a perfect mix of grace and tension.

Congratulations!
So the different fingers with different symbols represent the different choices you can make in the book?
Also, why are there surprise lines coming off the camel? The camel's like, "dude!"

You got it! I was hoping that was clear to the roving eye. My intial ambition was to squeeze even more action and symboloy into it, but when you're telling a story on someone's hand there's a limited amount of detail you can do.
Oh, and that camel's TOTALLY suprised and those aren't...like...dumb little dots I put there for no reason to be deisgn-y and take up space or anything. Pfft.

Wow! Congrats!
I really loved your Moby Dick cover, and this echoes that pretty awesomely. The lighting is just beautiful - and if I can find an excuse to buy this when it comes out, I think I will.
