Behind the Cover Art: March, 2026

I used the cut-paper technique for this cover design, which, while challenging, yields rewarding results when it works. The composition centers on a four-leaf clover with flora design within the shape. It also features a leprechaun collecting gold coins. To keep visual consistency, I worked exclusively with shades of green. The cover also highlights our village’s popular St. Patrick’s Day Potluck, represented by our local leprechaun, Norm, raising a toast with a shot of Irish whiskey.
