Painted covers for handbound books

I have been wanting to get more into painting, and it occurred to me earlier this evening that I could start up a series of paintings intended to be used on the covers of handbound books. I had created a painting intended for the cover of a handbound book a few years ago, but I had not really considered it as much of a style of binding as a whim I had to create a specific cover for that particular book. Now, however, I am thinking I might make more such paintings expressly made to be turned into covers on handbound books.
