David Drummonds covers

The Silver Palace Restaurant
This is a recent poetry book cover. The cover has matte lamination with a spot gloss varnish on the melting butter. The image of melting butter in a frying pan seemed an appropriate visual metaphor for this collection of poetry, which deals with the transience of time and human mortality.

The Rent Collector
The cover immediately evokes the title character with a single, yet personalityfilled, object. The neutral type choice doesnt detract focus from the walleta good thing. This is an example of a cover that met with a fair degree of initial resistance and probably would have been rejected if not for the support of the publisher.
