This project is a book cover for the sixth book in a series of novels about Kestrel, a part human/part elf protagonist.
The book cover should convey a scene inside a large religous temple in which Kestrel stands on the floor of the sanctuary, and causes stones and materials from the floor to rise up and assemble themselves into a beautiful statue of a human goddess who he worships. The statue should be approximately 35 to 40 feet tall. The sanctuary room in which the statue is created should be a large round room, with space for worshipers at the floor level, as well as balconies and windows people can worship from at higher levels. The goddess should have a beautiful face and wear a flowing gown. Kestrel, the protagonist, should look elven with arched eyebrows, pointed ears, a relatively thin body type.
The book cover should be 9" tall by 12.75" with a .125" bleed.
A previous book cover from the series may be viewed on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Healing-Sprin…E7TX08/ref
