I recently had the opportunity to illustrate a series of covers for E.R. Frank's books at Atheneum. I think they look pretty spiffy all together!
All-Out Yard War
Here's a killed cover I did for Penguin Random House. I think the final book was retitled simply "Yard War" and they ran a photo instead.
Hit Count for Algonquin Books
