Bill Sanderson illustrates Tolkein

Bill Sanderson illustrates Tolkein (illustrator, Phosphor Art, publishing)

Phosphor Art's Bill Sanderson recently illustrated some title pages for J.R.R. Tolkien's Sir Gawain and the Green Knight.

It was Bill's idea to use a letter as part of the design - the initial for the subject of the text in question - Garwain, Pearl, and Orfero. Bill used his signature scraperboard style to complete the artwork for publisher Harper Collins. This first image is just a taster - the book will be out in the shops on the 1st April.
