Life went and took away my entire evening. I am stressed to the hilt, and need an episode of Mannix.

So without much ado, here are the five covers I did since the previous post. I am inordinately fond of the ruby ring. The texture for the jewel came of a certain amount of kismet and experimentation, and now I want to do more jewel-themed covers. Maybe a jewel heist cover?

And here are three more. I realized that they are three quite different pictures of intrigue. The first fanciful and high adventure (which doesn't do well as a thumbnail, alas), the second could be YA or romantic suspense, the third clearly much more hard-boiled. I think all of them, though, would benefit from a real title, and not the meaningless "Title Here."

Now off to watch some of Season 4 of Mannix -- a season with Peggy -- a show created by the famous Levinson and Link (who created Columbo and Murder, She Wrote). A little heart-pounding theme music by Lalo Shifrin, and hip mid-century modern credit sequence.

Oh, and as usual, here is the Linky with all the other ROW80 participants who updated today.

See you in the funny papers.
