The Night Circus

The Night Circus

The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern.
Client: The Folio Society.
Art Director: Raquel Leis Allison
Editor: Sophia Schoepfer

I was contacted by The Folio Society, who pitched my portfolio previously to the author of The Night Circus, Erin Morgenstern. I was ecstatic at the opportunity to create an illustrated edition of one of my favorite books. I was commissioned by Folio Society to do a cover, a slipcase, endpaper design, interior book illustrations & accompanying chapter heads.
