Composition:
Distorted Perspective: A fisheye or forced perspective looking down a narrow,
oppressive hallway.
The walls lean inward slightly,
creating claustrophobia.
The vanishing point is a half-open doorway at the far end.
The Hallway Walls: Textured like rough,
violently splintered wood
(representing "sticks")
.
Deep gouges and sharp,
protruding splinters catch the dim light.
The wood grain is emphasized,
dark and unforgiving
(Deep Umber/Splintered Brown)
.
The Floor
(Foreground & Middle Ground)
: The floorboards are replaced by a jarring,
high-gloss epoxy surface.
It features a stark,
geometric pattern in RED,
PURE WHITE,
and JET BLACK.
Think sharp triangles,
fractured lines,
or harsh chevrons – something artificial,
cold,
and unsettling.
This pattern dominates the lower half/foreground of the image.
The Stain
(Critical)
: As the eye travels down the hallway towards the door,
the pristine geometric pattern is violated.
Spreading from beneath the half-open doorway and pooling several feet into the hall is a thick,
viscous,
unnatural ELECTRIC BLUE stain.
It looks like spilled ink,
antifreeze,
or liquid nitrogen – intensely cold and toxic.
It doesn't blend with the red/white/black; it obliterates the pattern,
dissolving the sharp lines into a swirling,
sickly pool.
The edges of the blue stain subtly,
horrifyingly,
suggest the outline of a collapsed figure
(Tarik)
where it meets the geometric floor.
The Doorway
(Void)
: The half-open door reveals only ABSOLUTE PITCH BLACKNESS beyond.
No details,
no light.
It's a pure,
consuming void.
The blue stain seems to seep from this darkness onto the floor.
Lighting: A single,
weak,
unseen light source
(perhaps a bare bulb off-camera high in the hall)
casts harsh,
long shadows down the splintered walls.
It highlights the texture of the wood and the sickly sheen of the blue stain and the cold epoxy floor.
Deep shadows cling to the corners and the void of the doorway.
High contrast is key.
Text Treatment:
Title: "STICKS & STONES" in large,
heavy,
crushed,
fragmented BLACK lettering.
The letters look like roughly hewn stone or shattered slate.
Positioned vertically along the left splintered wall,
following the perspective lines downward towards the void,
or starkly across the very top of the cover.
It should feel heavy and imposing.
Author Name: Very small,
in thin,
crisp Pure White capitals.
Placed subtly in the bottom right corner,
on the geometric pattern but away from the blue stain.
Color Palette:
Dominant: Deep Umber / Splintered Brown
(Walls)
,
Pitch Black
(Void, Deep Shadows)
Artificial Intrusion: Glossy RED,
PURE WHITE,
JET BLACK
(Geometric Epoxy Floor)
Toxic Absence: Electric Blue
(Stain/Figure - This is the only blue in the image)
