I have been having some fun! I love the members of Basenotes, the perfume forum I visit almost every day. I wanted to do something nice for my friends on Base notes so I have been re-binding and illustrating two old pocket books. It’s a great suspense novel by Ngaio Marsh: ”False Scent”. There is of course a theme of a very special perfume which runs through it, and I have my idea what it would smell like, and the game is going to be that who-ever guesses it gets one of the books.
So here are the covers, inside is a little vial where you can put your perfume if you like.
I drew the illustrations directly in the book, in the empty spots.
The fatal perfume is presented!
Inspector Alleyn inspects the body…
Very interesting. YOu must be good enough to draw directly into the book.
It makes me nervous though! No room for mistakes!
