Book covers? Hot dog!
Last week saw a new step in a long-term project I’d begun work on years ago.
In 2008, J.H. Reynolds (one of the many J.?.’s I’ve worked with this century) hired me to do some concept art for a novel series he was writing. We both loved the project (and being colleagues) so much that we made extra paintings (20 total). Last week, he told me of his choice to self-publish, and (to my extreme delight) licensed five of the concept paintings to serve as book covers.
My thanks to J.H. and his coauthor Craig S. Cunningham for including me on this fantastic journey. The paintings are (c) JR Fleming, and the characters and story remain the copyright of the authors.
Hit the Digital Media Illustrations to see the favorites I chose, along with their rough sketches.

Don’t forget to send me your vitae/resume with a CD of images. Thanks for coming to the BASH! It was very nice to meet you!
