Penguin Design Award: One Hundred Years of Solitude Book Cover

*Please see updated bookcover design here*

This is my current design for the Penguin Design Award for Gabriel García Márquez's novel One Hundred Years of Solitude. I picked up on the idea of the Golden Fish as a motif in the story. The background is done in watercolour, taking inspiration from portugese painted tiles.
