THE LOOP- the image chosen to be the book cover, represent the yellowstone park's lake as a symbol of the settings where the story take place. The particular colors and shape of the lake inspired me to create an misterious illustration as the meaning of the title.
the hard nature of Yellowstone is a matter of balance between different animals species but also it hide the relationship with the men, in this case between men and wolfs.

"Everything the Power of the World does is done in a circle.
The sky is round, and I have heard that the earth is round like a ball, and so are the stars.
The wind, in its greatest power, whirls. Birds make their nests in circles, for theirs is the same religion as ours.
The sun comes forth and goes down in a circle. The moon does the same, and both are round.
Even the seasons form a great circle in their changing, and always come back again to where they were.
The life of a man is a circle from childhood to childhood, and so it is in everything where power moves."
