Kvilhaug’s book of The Goddess Iðunn uncovers her true associations and links through poetry and myths. Iðunn is often linked to concepts like youth and fertility, but why is this? Kvilhaug examines why she is so often linked to these concepts and offers to comparative view of the goddess to other myths that often depict similar goddess in the same light despite the fact that they do not share any actual source depicting them as such.
This was the first cover I asked if I could take as a way to learn how to create covers. Sheal is the ultimate designer at TLS she just knows how to make Photoshop behave, something which I have not yet been able to master. She guided me through the entire process which was amazing and I am eternally grateful to her for helping me learn and making the final version pop.
I wanted to make Iðunn the focus of the cover, so I used an image from the pubic domain of a bronze statue of the goddess herself. The simplicity of the image was enhanced when Sheal added this gorgeous overlay of dew coming off an apple. The final cover reveals the beauty of the goddess synopsis with youth, beauty and the apples of eternity.
