"Cat 'n' Dog" series book cover design and illustration

Commissioned book cover design and illustration for the first three books of the "Cat 'n' Dog" series by Lilli Lea. Hand-drawn using graphite and colored pencil with additional artwork, details and touch-ups using Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator.
Full cover spread of "Cat 'n' Dog Get Retailed." Each book contains it's own identifying symbol on the spine and back cover (which was also the mark of a specific character in each book). These symbols were hand-drawn using Micron pens and later vectorized using Adobe Illustrator. Each book also contains a bloody paw print on the spine, numbering its place in the series. These paw prints were hand-drawn using colored pencil and touched-up using Adobe Photoshop.
Back cover of "Cat 'n' Dog Get Retailed." The symbol was faded so it would not compete for hierarchy with the text. This treatment of the back cover was also done with the two subsequent books.
The original graphite pencil drawings of Jet (the dog) and Juneau (the cat) which were used on all three covers for consistency; the only difference included the differing backgrounds and costumes for Jet and Juneau (which were also hand-drawn) to fit the theme of each book.
