Portrait of an Artist

Charlotte Morgan breathes new life into vintage book covers by turning them into works of art. Charlotte's collections of individually hand painted book covers focus on groups of wildlife, sea creatures and domestic animals.

Process of Creation

Taking a vintage story book, the artist first creates texture and movement to each piece by sponging different colours over the entire book cover, and then paints the outline of the animal or sea creature with a complementary colour. Every cover has touches which give character and personality to the animal and because each one is hand drawn and painted no two are exactly alike.
