This post is for Liana Mir, who likes Book Cover Mondays.
I have long admired the exquisite cover art of Patricia McKillip’s books:
The artist behind these enchanting paintings is Kinuko Y. Craft, who also did the cover art for my current read: Wildwood Dancing by Juliet Marillier (recommended by LisaM).
Craft has also illustrated many picture book retellings of myths and fairy tales:
I could spend hours immersed in the colors and intricate details of her work. It is truly a feast for the eyes. Check out Kinuko Y. Craft’s website for more of her gorgeous paintings.

The McKillip and Marillier covers are *sumptuous*.
How are you enjoying Wildwood Dancing so far?
I’m not very far in, but I’m enjoying it. I love the remote, Eastern European setting and the hints of The Frog Prince in the story, too.
Ooooooooooooooooooh! So pretty! I love vivid, rich colors and all those tiny details woven in together. Lovely.
Glad you like! 😀
