Penguin Books-Student Design Award

  • Holly-Anne Wilkinson

My entry for the Penguin Student Design Awards, Adult Non-Fiction Category. The selected book fort this brief was ‘A Short History of Nearly Everything’ by Bill Bryson. My inspiration for this cover came from the ‘Plot to Kill the King with a Poison Dart’; however, my interpretation of this came froma poison dart also being known as a Frog. During this process I took visits to The Deep in Hull for first hand Observations of Poisonous Frogs. This process helped me to create my outcome using the analogue method of Lino Printing.
