Artwork for the book Cutting the Gordian Knot
I wanted something moody for the cover of my book and remembered drawing standing stones some years previously. Searching through my files I found the A3 sketch in colouring pencil and ink and realised that with some cropping and adding other elements I could create a suitable book cover.

| The original A3 drawing in ink and colouring pencil |
This is a fictional scene inspired by the stones at Avebury in Wiltshire.
I cropped the picture, focusing on one stone then added a celtic design inspired by the Lindisfarne knot.
All the elements of my design were put together by my publisher and the cover was born.
