The book cover by Ysabel Grace Simon of Even The Rainbow Has A Body drew inspiration from my granddaughter #princess2015la, my muse to whom this book is dedicated.
The idea was “to put all (or most) of the things that Rainbow means”, to me, as the author. “I know you dedicated your book to your granddaughter, so I modeled the child after her, said Ysabel about her source of inspiration.
“As legacies are intended to be passed on to the next generations, there is no better image that reflects the promise of new beginnings and hope than a child’s face. Children reminds us of the choice to believe in the part of humanity’s innate creativity, resilience, goodness and beauty in man in the midst of the constant push and pull between mediocrity and excellence, 9ld and new, and good and vile. One part of our self is what we inherit, the other is what we make of it, thus only half of the child’s face is shown, Ysabel Grace Simon (then 19yo) said of her watercolor painting.
