A few years ago I painted a few covers for western novels. They were for the German publisher BASTEI LÜBBE. They asked that the main character be a girl with a sexy point.
The same thing happened when they commissioned me to cover some romantic genre covers for female readers. Then they asked me to paint men with a sexy point. Maybe another day I'll hang them here.
They were painted in acrylics. I include the previous pencil study and the color version.
