Sherwood Smith commissioned me to paint a cover for Time of Daughters, scheduled for publication in fall 2019. I painted an image I could use for a full wrap on the paperback and hardback versions, while using part of it for the cover of the ebook version. While I was painting it, the manuscript grew from one book-length into two, but two full covers weren’t in her budget. We decided to go with using tinted lettering and a large “Book One” and “Book Two” to indicate which one was which. Book One is green to symbolize the spring setting, and Book Two is orange, indicating that it’s taking place later in the year.
