These were some illustrations (and cover concept) that I put together for a competition that the Folio society and House of Illustration just had.




My sister gave me a copy of L’Étranger a couple of years ago to improve my French, and it turned into one of my favourite books, so it was fun to have a chance to respond to it. As usual though I felt like the deadline crept on me really quickly (made worse by the fact that I was doing it over Christmas between the obligatory fun of chocolate and alcohol!); still I’m happy with some of the ink textures happening, especially in the plotting image.
