Haydn has produced these illustrations in response to Folio Society's 'Book Illustration Competition 2015', which asked creatives to create a series of illustrations for their publication 'Ghost Stories'.

 

Working within his sketchbook, Haydn developed his ideas and composititons, and took these rough sketches into paintings, where he produced his illustrations with watercolour, goauche and Photoshop.

 

As part of the brief, a book cover binding illustration was also required, which is shown below.
