JIM BURNS

Jim Burns is one of the greatest airbrush artists in the world today who has won numerous awards and sells his originals in America because the European public haven't woken up to how collectable his work is likely to be in years to come. A sad loss for Britain that this amazing artist's original work will nearly all end up in the States. Attention to detail and a mesmerizing realism pervade Jim Burns' work. Many of the characters Jim Burns has invented seem too real to not really exist! He has collaborated with many great names and if you haven't read the fully illustrated 'Planet Story' by Harry Harrison you really don't know what you've missed! It is a kind of humorous sci-fi spoof that really ought to have been a major film before now. Anyway, click into here and enjoy the work of Jim Burns - a brilliant master-craftsman.

TIM WHITE

Another technical master-craftsman who has not had the recognition his work spanning several decades deserves. Brilliant covers for books by major sci-fi and fantasy writers did not even credit him as the artist in the seventies but once you know his work you know who did them. If you want to get to know his work better then look in our bookshop for his newly back in print book.

CHRIS FOSS

REAL Spaceships are often felt by sci-fi fans to have been invented by this guy! They look like they've been through space, not all pristine and "just left the factory". Some stretch the credibility in terms of their structure but, hey, this is the future - anything can happen! How many book covers has he done? Who knows? He probably doesn't either - it's some Quendrillions worth! But he did make more money out of illustrating DR Comfort's 'Joy of Sex' - no surprises there! (and no pictures from it in here! This is serious sci-fi!).

BRUCE PENNINGTON

This great British artist doesn't seem to get the recognition he deserves nowadays. Anyone with a collection of sixties and seventies sci-fi and fantasy paperbacks knows his work whether they know his name or not. The textures and colours he uses are unmistakeable. Influenced more by The Impressionists than by classical painters and obsessed with the unnusual he is one of those unique painters recognizable instantly. There is a surrealist influence in much of his work and subjects (often defined by the book!) range from HP Lovecraft to aliens and even pussycats! If you haven't seen his work before go click and come in and enjoy! For the real collectors there are some copies availabl that Bruce Pennington has specially initialled for us!

DANNY FLYNN

Danny Flynn's book 'Only Visiting This Planet' in our bookshop is a great overview of his work. Here you can buy prints of varying sizes - some signed by him. His work encompases Sci-Fi, Fantasy and Horror. He has worked closely with celebrated author Arthur C clarke.

GERRY ANDERSON

From the early days of Supercar and Fireball XL5 through Stingray to the awesome Thunderbirds and then on to Captain Scarlet and Joe 90 Mr Anderson and his crew were a force to be reckoned with in early animation using puppets and realistic model sets (everything looked dirty and used as it would in real life). By today's standards of high tech CGI and animatronics it looks very tame but for those who grew up in the sixties it was really something special. If you are older than you are prepared to own up to or know someone who is then there might be something special in here.

STAR WARS

Photo-montage images from the early Star Wars films. These very old large format plates have been dry-mounted and matted ready for framing.
