Module 4 book cover

Here is what I came up with for my final design. I wanted to make the cover bright yet deep. I transformed the pupils texture into colorful piano keys by adding three different layer at different opacities. Using the dodge and burn tools to adjust the shadows in the eye made the added layers blend with the eye base. For the background I wanted there to also be texture but not be a distraction. So I used an image of concrete and an image of sheets of music. I made them black and white and the adjusted the contrast and brightness until it reached my desired outcome. I used an autograph as the text for my title as I felt it gave a personal connection to my artist. I allowed room on the back cover for a description of the book with the diagonal divide of the piano keys.
