The three Jeff Ford covers above are a trilogy, so I created their covers as a triptych. This is what the original art looks like. It\u2019s one of the most labor-intensive pieces I\u2019ve ever done, but definitely a labor of love. This is all traditional media, no digital\u2026. oil painting, found objects, collage, and shadowbox assemblage. <\/p>\n

Pocket Books really liked the triptych I did for a Kirk\/Spock\/McCoy trilogy a couple of years ago. So they commissioned me to do another for their 2008 STAR TREK: TEROK NOR trilogy. This is what the three covers above look like when they\u2019re side-by-side.<\/p>\n
