Book Jacket Design

Two design reinterpretations of Stephen Fry’s Mythos and Heroes, based on ancient Greek art.

To create the look and feel of this project, I turned to the MET Museum’s collection of Greek pots and jars. Often, these beautiful works depict gods and mortals from specific moments in myth.
