Coralie Bickford-Smith does it again


Oh my god, aren’t these book covers stunning? I’ve always loved Coralie Bickford-Smith’s clothbound series, both as a lovely book and a book of lovely words. It’s so wonderful to see her take the theme into a totally new direction with the F. Scott Fitzgerald series.

Ever feel like you’ve found your art-twin, except they’ve done the things that you’ve only had in your mind? Yup. This girl. I love the colours, the use of patterns, the black and white line drawings. Gorrrgeous!
