Thaliad, in the Artist's Eye

Right now, the cover of Thaliad, Marly Youmans' book-length, narrative poem,  is beginning to take shape through the mind, eye, and hands of the extraordinary Welsh artist Clive Hicks-Jenkins, who generously agreed to take on this project. In a series of posts on his own Artlog, Clive describes and illustrates the process of envisioning and creating the cover art, and I wanted to share this very exciting process with you as it unfolds.

Clive writes:

"Marly Youman’s epic poem Thaliad, is to be published later this year by Phoenicia Publishing, Montreal.  It is a work of staggering beauty and imagination, and I’m enormously proud to have been asked by the author and her publisher, Elizabeth Adams, to create the image that will speak for it on the cover."
