Artwork for Roses of Blood

Artwork related to my zombie/vampire novel, Roses of Blood on Barbwire Vines.  I’ve posted most of this in another thread, but I wanted to segregate it; from now on, all Roses artwork can be found here. To begin, here's the cover by artist Stephen Blundell...

Thanks for posting this, Jacob.  I designed this ad for Cemetery Dance.  I drew the grunge on the corners with Photoshop, but the zombies are all Stephen.  He’s been sending me sketches this whole time, so I just copy-and-pasted them into a group.  Oh, and I copy-and-pasted a third tentacle onto the mutant :)

Thanks Jacob. I do enjoying helping promote books. I also want to say I really do enjoy posting here! It's slower paced and everyone seems really friendly.
