🦋 Cover Reveal!✨ So excited to finally share the cover art I created for • Year’s Best Arthropod Short Fiction Vol. 3 by Hexagon Magazine • @hexagonmagazine.bsky.social 🎨

Cover art I created for • Year’s Best Arthropod Short Fiction Vol. 3 by Hexagon Magazine • - Cover is a rectangle of a symmetrical detailed mirror half drop repeat pattern inspired by arts and crafts era wallpaper. In the middle section is a dragonfly facing down from overhead with paper wasps facing outwards above over top of branching leaves. Below and above is the central repeated motif of a large leaf insect from above framed by lace wing butterflies turned outward and stag beetles facing inward. Surrounding and underneath all of them are stylized leaf branches with round large berries. The entire pattern is in intense ochre yellow and mahogany brown shades with pops of pale yellow for the berries. Over top is a handmade paper texture and fine line ink work in brown and pale yellow for threadbare highlights on the wasp and butterfly wings.
