Just as a thought, why aren't there like 1000 novel covers with your Art on them?

hampus.bsky.social•137 days ago

Your guess is as good as mine 🤔

Because the decisions are made by dumb people that hopped on the minimalist train and no longer want luscious and atmospheric Artworks on covers?

It's a trend I'll never understand

Beautiful!

And thumbs up to you for mentioning George Ziel--I first found out about him thanks to a great article in ILLUSTRATION magazine from a few years ago. Very nice to see someone else knows about him!

Thank you! I became aware of him only a few years ago, but his influence on many others in the genre is obvious. Amazing sense of motion in his work

No problem! The article about him that I read was in ILLUSTRATION magazine issue 37. It's a great article and also has a lot of pictures of his work.

I might have to track that down, thank you for the tip!
