Artist Statement

For this cover, I chose two colors closely associated with the (admittedly) cliché ideas of Dracula: red and black. The cover includes a subtle image of a coffin, and red dots, which could be interpreted either as nails or blood droplets. The whole cover is modern, and will hopefully intrigue new readers into picking up the book. — Elizabeth Firmage
