OMG seriously, I have his work framed, next to my desk… beautiful stuff! This print to be exact. It is the cover of Otherland: City of Golden Shadow by Tad Williams. Great series IMO.
I believe that is the cover of one edition of Lovecraft stories.
Yes - he did the covers for several HPL collections.
Thumbs up for the Snow Queen! Here’s the Summer Queen
Snow Queen, World’s End, and Summer Queen are fabulous and should be read by everyone.
I believe that Michael Whelan has sold more books of Science Fiction and Fantasy than any author
Always loved his paintings which feature some kind of ruins:
Second Foundation
Dozois Best of the Year
His Elric covers sold me on all of Michael Moorcock’s work. Amazing. I don;t think I have ever seen a crappy schlocky anything from Mr Whelan (OK I don;t know all his work and I am sure some client used him as a ambulatory paintbrush, but… )
Thats actually a very nice ass in that painting.
Yep. I mean bad as in the good bad.
