Not Quite Heaven

So I have a book cover job! Just got assigned to it. The author is Barbara Meyers, and its for her new book Not Quite Heaven. It is a romance between an author in a rut and a female author.

So here are my thumbnails I just sent her, and now I'm just waiting for the feedback.

Belladonna

This is a piece I did for a made up perfume called Belladonna, which would be made from the poisonous plant. The eyes of the girl are dilated, which is one of the side effects of ingesting Belladonna, and the glowing orbs are supposed to be hallucinations, another symptom of Belladonna poisoning.

The Book Thief

So here's a painting I did after starting to read The Book Thief. Definitely check this book out....I read 50 pages in one sitting, and I don't do that often.

Lindsay Beach Illustration

Senior Thesis

Society of Illustrators

so, two of my pieces have made it into the society of illustrators. the first is my black swan piece, and the second is one of my senior thesis pieces. i'm so excited!

here's the one i haven't posted on here yet. it is a wrap around cover for the young adult book Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson. the book follows a young girl who is mute because she was raped, and her journey to find the ability to speak about what happened to her.

i did this piece in oil. the bird is a separate painting that i dropped in digitally.

Black Swan Poster

so, for my first piece for the second semester of senior portfolio, i decided to do a poster for the movie Black Swan (so good. if you haven't seen it i highly recommend it). the project isn't due for another week and a half, but i was so excited to do it that i just knocked it out in one day.


the feather is painted in oil, and the background is black acrylic.
