I assume it was a paper cutout or computer generated but influenced by paper art like this: http://fun-pak.blogspot.com/2011/02/beautifull-paper-art.html<br /><br />If it was layers of "jacket" that would be a great little art piece, but highly impractical as a jacket.

Still don't know of ANY cover of his that I would not like to own and put in a friggin' display box.Ian Koviakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06779092543413941740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5413291183164140297.post-9610362258872713652011-08-11T17:52:04.983-07:002011-08-11T17:52:04.983-07:00Amazing!
