Abstract
The legend of King Arthur is unmatched in valor and glory as well as tragedy. Because of this, Arthurian works are continually created in every media. I have joined in this effort by illustrating a series of book jackets for T. H. White’s literary series The Once and Future King. The five books in this series are titled: The Sword in the Stone, The Queen of Air and Darkness, The Ill-Made Knight, The Candle in the Wind, and The Book of Merlyn. Together they introduce a myriad of themes, moods, and characters that create a complex story.
