BOOK COVERS - The Politics of Aesthetics

Potentially the start of a new ongoing proj, similar to Andrew Joyce's drawings of dvd covers, I finished The Politics of Aesthetics the other week and thought it would be an interesting way to respond to the text by making an illustration for each book I read. From that I thought it makes sense to instead focus on a cover, to try and 'get' the book in a succinct drawing. Obviously this is going to be a steep learning curve but stay tuned for progress. Not sure which of these works best but the idea is the same. Also probably owe a lot to the design of the first issue of ..Ment journal which is fantastic and you should get your hands on. ANYWAY, 2 versions:
