Expect Layout: The Boy is positioned slightly below center, facing the ominous figure (or the viewer in other perspectives). His outstretched arms emphasize the swirling energy, drawing attention. Energy Swirls: Rainbow-colored energy spirals outward from his hands, creating a glowing halo effect and lighting up the surrounding snow. The energy serves as a dynamic secondary focal point. Chernobog: Positioned in the upper background, towering over the scene with a shadowy, distorted form partially obscured by the blizzard. His glowing red eyes contrast sharply with the snow and rainbow light. Colonial-style buildings line the street in the middle and far background, snow-covered with visible storm effects. A flickering streetlight on one side adds realism and depth to the town scene. Whirling snow dominates the background, creating a dynamic sense of motion and mysticism while allowing the energy and figure of Chernobog to stand out.
Expect Color: Cool shades of white, gray, and icy blue dominate the snowy scene, reinforcing the blizzard atmosphere.

Original Book Cover For
Visual Composition:

A central image of Prentice Pendleton (a teenage boy) standing slightly below the center of the cover with his arms outstretched as swirling, rainbow-colored energy emanates from his hands. A glowing halo effect surrounds the boy, making him the focal point. Above him, partially obscured by a dynamic blizzard, looms a shadowy figure with glowing red eyes—Chernobog, radiating an ominous presence. In the background, colonial-style buildings, covered in snow, are slightly tilted to create tension. A flickering streetlight on the left side pierces through the snowstorm, while visible, curved wind gusts animate the snow driving through the scene.

Design Typography:

A bold, serif font with mystical flourishes for the title "Prentice Pendleton & The Eternal Storm," positioned at the top. The text is glowing with a faint, icy-blue inner gradient that complements the stormy atmosphere. The author’s name, "Kevin McGee," is placed near the bottom in a condensed sans-serif font, colored in muted gray, leaving focus on the artwork.

Design Layout:

The title takes up the upper third of the cover, centered for balance and readability. Prentice is prominently featured slightly below center, taking up the middle third of the cover, with the swirling rainbow energy extending outward to guide the eye in a circular motion. The imposing figure of Chernobog looms in the background, framed by motion-blurred snow gusts. Colonial-style buildings and the glowing streetlight occupy the bottom third, adding depth. The author’s name is clearly visible at the bottom, ensuring hierarchy with other elements.

Rationale Behind the Design:

The visual composition creates a compelling balance between mysticism, danger, and adventure by focusing on Prentice as the heroic central figure while emphasizing the storm's movement and danger. The swirling energy adds mysticism while contrasting the cold, wintry tones, creating visual dynamism. The font choice mixes boldness with a mystical edge for the title, lending an adventurous yet otherworldly feel, while the author’s name remains understated to keep focus on the imagery. The matte background contrasts beautifully with the raised, glossy elements, drawing attention to the glowing, energetic focal points and lending the cover a professional, high-end feel suitable for the young adult genre.
