MAD COUNTRY

I used the Nepali summit of Mount Everest and the flying vultures as the main element. For the colors, I used the colors of the Lung Ta prayer flag: blue, white, red, green, and yellow. The five colors represent the five elements, and the Nepali people hang these prayer flags on the mountain to invoke blessings, among other things.

THE NARROW DOOR

The Narrow Door is a memoir about a friendship that ends in a tragic death and a marriage that ends turbulently. I hand weaved two images that represented the book's two events to create the cover art and added human touch and emotion.
