The University of Illinois Press released its latest book yesterday — Baking Powder Wars: The Cutthroat Food Fight that Revolutionized Cooking. And I'm proud to say that I designed the cover!

This one was a challenge because the photo you see on the cover did not exist. It is a combination of the following images:

It required a lot of work in Photoshop to make the title look like it was really on the can. I'm proud of the end result, though! I even ordered the book for myself because it seems like a really interesting read.

Thanks for looking! I plan to share more of my book cover designs, so please follow me if you're interested!

Happy Tuesday! —jenerallee78
