The art was commissioned. This was a regular assignment with DAW Books.
My first cover came after sending slides to Donald Wollheim. He wrote an encouraging letter that led me to NY and my first cover. More background on that in the bio on the website:

They've had a decades long relationship with Rob and the band. I met Rob at the BSF retrospective in Riverside.
Lately I haven’t been listening to much metal stuff but I’m sure that’s about to change. There’s something about the summer that steers me either towards reggae or heavy metal. 1/2
In addition to all that, the guys in the band have always been very kind and considerate. I’ve long regarded them as friends. 2/2
