Paintings for Penguin Books

When I first arrived in NYC in 1998, I hit up Penguin Books about doing some covers. They liked my stuff but, seeing how young and green I was, wanted to see some tear sheets (proven work for another publisher) first. I did some research and found out that many artists started with magazine covers to break into the industry. The only mainstream magazines appeared to be sci-fi or fantasy-based, and I preferred Sci-Fi. I completed these two paintings before I got busy doing album covers.
