Initial Cover Ideas

After trying to get ideas with my collages I decided I wanted to develop all three covers in three different styles to help get more ideas and help me decide where i wanted to take the covers. 

I chose to create 9 initial covers in total with 3 sets of covers with similar themes running throughout. One set of three covers had to incorporate photographic imagery, one set of 3 had to include digitally illustrated imagery and the other three had to use a certain grid system and layout.  

my initial photography covers ended up looking like this. This helped me further develop my work and give me more ideas throughout the process.
