The Secret Life of Bees

My version of The Secret Life of Bees. Designed in Adobe Illustrator.
I wanted to try something quite different to the original cover, so I keep the imagery simplistic and just related to the bees. I chose the colours because I think they compliment each other and make the font pop. I made the bee silhouettes translucent so they wouldn't detract too much from the rest of the cover. If this ever became a real cover I'd try to give the bees a spot UV finish.
