The relationship between books and their covers has been debated for ages, but few of us can really say that we do not at least form an initial impression of a book by way of its cover. One of the most versatile and talented artists who creates art for book jackets is Honi Werner. 

Honi Werner has created paintings for book covers by a broad selection of literary as well as mystery authors from Bebe Moore Campbell to  E. L. Doctorow, John Irving to Thomas Berger, Isabel Allende to Philippa Gregory, Peter Hoeg and Donna Leon.

As Ms. Werner moved into the digital world, she stopped painting on a physical canvas and began to paint on her computer. Some of her recent book covers are shown on this page.
