Daphne, I love your black horses with the blue tint, but I have to say that this golden horse is just as beautiful. Your color choices throughout the whole image are perfect. That azure blue sky and sandy ground look great behind the horses. Well done!

Thank you so much. If you would like a copy of the image alone I will send you a copy without lettering. Just email me at daphneoberon@gmail.com and specify the dimensions. This is 9x6.
Comment from Mr Jones
this has turned out so very wonderful and actually really love the golden colour in both name and horse (depicted). the composition works just fine and completed with a natural frame (cliff edge). with that bird soaring high in the sky, it could be a good omen for both success and prosperity. great details and always loving to see a snake added. they bring their own (type of) beauty to the nature. a desert scene without much water, though these animals look in rude health and pop out from the cover jacket.

Thank you so much for the stellar rating my star reviewer. If I haven't already sent you a copy of the image alone I can send you a copy without lettering. Just email me. This is 9x6. I just sent five chapters off to Jerry to edit because even though I thought he was done he says he misses editing my work. I weaves a mood spell he says and transports him into another dimension, lol! He is a good spelling and copy editor, but knows nothing about horses. Maybe way down the road you might yet read it for creativity and improved choice of adjectives and that kind of thing. I think you DO relate the hybrid wild horse, western and real life intrigue type subject matter that it is....

What another wonderful design -I was keeping one golden star for something really special and here we go
This again is a fantastic composition with perfect use of space and so beautiful combination of nature and the animal world - this book cover just is GOLDEN in essence , purity and innocence - the horses re spectacular, not just in form and perfect design but also in their character and personality - very expressive book cover and for sure again I would grab that book for sure if it would fall into my hands in a book store -
a very attractive and impressive as well as expressive presentation with a huge initial impact , well done, it also has a magnetic impact loll

Comment from Shadow catcher
Another lovely cover with your beautiful horses! The title can refer to the beautiful palomino mare ,the gold,or both! The colors are lovely,entire design well thought out and presented,very well balanced with the mountainside and opposite cliff framing your marvelous horses.I like the added details of the hawk and the snake. Have started reading your first book,an earlier release under your real name and am finding it very interesting and enjoyable,no doubt this will be an excellent read also once done and published. I wish you all the best in your continued literary endeavors!

How sweet of you to give such a kind review! Thanks!!
Comment from seshadri_sreenivasan
You are creating evidently something new. A symbioses between traditional and digital art in a very personal semi abstract style. I have seen creation in this style only in your portfolio.This is witness to a very creative mind. I like your creation. Good effort!

Oh thank you for your keen observation. I would actually be a traditional artist except for injuries to my right hand. Vector art simply became a tool to bring my more traditional art back to life. Obvious it is not traditionally used that way....
Comment from cleo85
I think your book cover is perfect. It caught the potential readers interest by showing in symbols without revealing too much of the story. The reader wants to know which are the connections between the horses, gold nuggets, the bird, the snake and the grandfather. So she or he will by the book. The horses are impressive. They remind of your other horse paintings. The colors are beautiful. The book cover is excellently composed and professionally painted.

Artists need an outlet if they cannot work in their domain. You use vector art perfectly in my opinion. :o)

Hey Daphne! This is a nice soothing piece. The use of color, light, and details on the animals makes for a nice eye catching work. Everything has been rendered really nice which makes for a fun work to view!
