Re: Cover Art - J.D.Heller Julek

I'm more familiar with his work as an illustrator than as a cover artist, but I love his style. It reminds me of some of the great old time book illustrators. He illustrated a book on Giants that I have, but I think there may be some of his pictures scattered through other books on my shelves.

(That page at the end of the link all looks very Arthurian, doesn't it?)

Re: Cover Art - J.D.Heller Julek

I think I saw that book on Giants once at a book fair but didn't have the funds to buy it...Damn!

Not unsuprising there's a very Arthurian look to some of the illustrations as he's illustrated books about Arthur and general Knight themes but I'm sure you already knew that.

I own a copy of Nanria Chroincles with illustrations by Heller, a very nice item indeed..

That final illustration is of St. George and the Dragon for anyone not sure.
