Those Pern dragons are very cool. If they ever turn Pern into a movie they should use your painting as a reference. Its so cool how you get to do all that cool stuff.

I think that a Pern dragon would be cool in Star Wars. I’m a fan of the origanal series to!

its funny to find people getting so upset about the style of art on a novel cover getting changed. Isnt change a good thing? i would always have thought that such a change could very easily re-energize peoples imaginations. but alas not.

i also struggle with dragons but for me its really fantastical beasts in general.

and whats this about a tony D art book? is it something in the works?!

I remember the furore on the official Anne McCaffrey bulletin board when the art was released. So many of us are such big fans of Whelan’s covers, it’s really hard to step back from a first impression that has shaped your vision of an entire storyverse.

I just re-read Spiderwick and was reminded that Byron looks a lot like a gryphon by Maurice Sendak, used by the Toronto Public Library special Osborne Collection of Early Children’s Books. ^_^
