I found this blurb about her working process: "The artist began with a very different concept for this book cover: two figures in the center, a winged human male standing behind a nonwinged female. But when Craft painted the male subject she saw something was wrong. After some consideration, she painted out the male, put wings on the female, and the final composition came together." ~ from Masters of Fantasy and Science Fiction Art by Karen Haber ~ There's an E-book preview of Haber's book through Google, and most of an entire article about Craft, including illustrations and quotes, p.143 to 149, is available to read. I think you and your readers would find it to be of interest: http://books.google.com/books?id=aB2phKRZY-IC&printsec=frontcover&source=gbs_atb#v=onepage&q&f=falseAnniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12588164536314320479noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-347683455597417526.post-29299106240968449322011-12-29T07:25:40.178-08:002011-12-29T07:25:40.178-08:00What a fabulous dream world.
