From the wall 1

I keep scraps and interesting pieces of ephemera pinned to a wall in my studio. I sometimes think these small accidents and one offs are more interesting then my “real work.”

The Shadow Rising

admin — Tue, 12 Jan 2010 15:52:58 +0000

Tor is rereleasing the Wheel of Time series as ebooks, with a different illustrator creating a cover for each novel. I was lucky enough to be asked to work on The Shadow Rising, book four in the series. I’ve been reading Robert Jordan’s novels since I was about thirteen(many years ago), it was quite an experience to work on something that is so deeply situated in my consciousness and memories of childhood. There’s a nice post on Tor.com about the whole project, along with some process and a short video of me talking about what it was like to work on this picture. If you have the time, take a look at some of the other great covers by the likes of Donato Giancola, Kekai Kotaki, and David Grove.

I’m fortunate to work around a lot of really talented people. Recently some friends and I put together a small promotional paper(my contribution below) with an accompanying website (thanks Jennifer), where you can find out more about our studio, the project, and who contributed. For those interested, you can buy a copy of the paper here.
