3 black and white sketches of the cover for Reigning Souls: By Her Heart by Elyse Sylvan and Martina Pine. All three show variations of a view out a medieval-inspired window, with a matching alcove on the back cover.
A Black and White Sketch. A full wrap cover (back & front + spine) of Reigning Souls: By Her Heart by Elyse Sylvan and Martina Pine. A view from a cozy but grand 17th century manor with Tudor style wood paneling. On the back cover is an arched alcove with a wooden relief caving of a crown above a panel painted with a dove on a branch. On the front cover, is a window, the same framing as the alcove, except the wooden relief is a dove and leaded glass fills the transom. Through the window is a view of a snowy scene. A medieval French country manor sits in the distance, windows glowing warmly in the twilight.
