Treasure Island

In an assignment to transform an existing book, I made a durable new cover for Treasure Island by Robert L. Stevenson. Using the concept of a map, a created a chest to contain the treasure; in this case the story itself. I used hand drawn illustratios and colour pencils to create the map; dyed the fabric with tea, used a vintage button and faux leather fabric for the chest and gold thread to complete it.
