'The Ogre of Rashomon' is an eBook conversion of a classic piece of mythology chronicled in the book 'Japanese Tales' by Yei Theodora Ozaki. I illustrated & designed the cover, the 3 in-text illustrations, as well as title & end pages. Once the illustrated elements were designed,  I reformatted the text from the original story into a digital medium, combined with these illustrations to create a eBook version of the story. 

With the cover, I captured the intimidating, dramatic tone of the story through the depiction of the ogre (Oni) lurching out of the smoke. A shade-based color scheme adds to the consistency of the tone as well as the illustrations, particularly when paired with the stylized swirling clouds. Each of the individual illustrations correlate with a specific scene in the story, & accompany the text.
