It's such a gorgeous cover, and so interesting to hear all about how it 'arrived'. I'm also not a huge fan of 'face' covers - I generally prefer to imagine how characters look from the description in the story itself - but this one is definitely an exception. Oddly enough, one of my favorite recent covers is the UK cover of Lyndall Clipstone's 'Lakesedge', which has a face on it too, though it's mostly swallowed by shadow and flowers. It's really gorgeous and atmospheric and the colors are beautiful.
That's so crazy the difference with the eyes! I love that! I also used to think I didn't like face covers, but there have been sooo many good ones of late!

Loved hearing how all the different members of the team fed into the process. And what a result! Thanks for sharing.
