Threshold Cover 2012

Threshold: New Perspective cover
Digital Media
9"x 12"
February 2012
This edition of Threshold was a bit different. It was a combination of student art, inspirational writings, and blank pages to write or draw on. The cover is a beautiful print by Leslie Parsons and I added the title and offset the "New Perspective" line to give the viewer a different perspective. The back I created in Photoshop to match the front. I also kept the back cover simple like a notebook would be.
