Romeo and Juliet - Shakespeare Book Cover

Process & Materials
Linocuts

Concept & Background
These Shakespeare covers are personal linocut projects, each using a minimalist approach and hand-carved aesthetic. The Romeo and Juliet design shows two interlocking roses with blood on the thorns — a way of capturing both the intimacy and violence at the heart of the play.
