One of my favorite books my senior year of high school was Hold Your Own, by Kate Tempest. It's a poetry compilation inspired by the story of Tiresias, a man who becomes a blind prophet at the hands of the gods Zeus and Hera--modernized with Tempest's own experiences sprinkled in. For an assigned cover recreation, I wanted to allude to something you wouldn't understand unless you actually read the book and something that would draw someone in, wanting to know more. Spoiler Alert!! The last line of the book is "he keeps his eyes in a plastic bag", so I chose to roll with that as the premise for my recreation.
This is the digitally painted centerpiece of my cover--the infamous eyes in a plastic bag.
DISCLAIMER: I do not own or claim any copyright to Hold Your Own, or the image of Kate Tempest used in my recreation.
