Book Cover Illustrations

I got word that Holly LaMora’s Finding Badger is now available in paperback and Kindle format at: Amazon.com. Billed as a “Metaphorical Journey of Transformation” the book is a very entertaining read. And you can find sample chapters at Amazon.com’s page. The only caveat is that once you start reading, you’ll likely be hooked and […]

One of the pictures (which I posted for Halloween in the previous blog entry) caught the eye of designer David Grasekamp who asked to use it as “Mephisto” in newsletter advertising an upcoming lecture/exhibition about form in art — and which would include a showing of the 1926 German movie “Faust – Eine deutsche Volkssage.” […]

A small collection of artwork from my horror gallery. Some newish, others early artwork. Hopefully entertaining for those wanting a few Halloween scares and perhaps a laugh or two along the lines of those great Charles Addams’ cartoons or Stephen King in his less dark moments. Here’s wishing my clients, fans, and visitors a good […]

I got word from movie-maker Stephen Biro that his horror novel Hellucination (including the several versions with the book cover illustration I created, shown above) is now available in several formats. Currently there are four versions of the book available: 1) The Mass Market Print Version using my cover illustration on the front of the […]

I got word that C.A. Dawson’s Frozen in Time is now available for Kindle users at: Amazon.com. C.A. Dawson is a science fiction writer living and working in Victoria, British Columbia. An excerpt is available to read online here: Frozen in Time The earlier book cover illustration I created for the title is shown below. […]

As those following my blog know, I recently did the artwork and layout for the print version of Stephen Quayle’s Angel Wars. Now I’ve started on the Kindle ebook version of the title. Porting a novel into Kindle’s format (based on the older Mobipocket ebook format) isn’t too tough, thanks to the Mobipocket Creator, free […]

Two more illustrations created over the weekend, with both seeking adoption by a loving book cover designer or magazine art director. As of today, both of these illustrations have all rights available, including the book and magazine cover rights as well as T-shirt, mouse pad, and other odds and ends. This little plug of the […]
