2010: ODYSSEY TWO (1982) Acrylic on Illustration Board - 30" x 20" When legendary publisher Judy-Lynn del Rey asked me to do the cover to the sequel to 2001 by Arthur C. Clarke she said, "What we're looking for here is a 'big book look.'" 1/3 #sciencefiction #illustration #arthurcclarke #delreybooks

THE SONGS OF DISTANT EARTH (1986) Acrylic - 20” x 31” After running through several preliminary concepts, I arrived at an approach to this book cover that felt perfect to me. The scene I imagined would be some time before the events described in the book. 1/8 #sciencefiction #illustration #arthurcclarke #delreybooks
