Darrell K. Sweet

Following along with James Nicoll's survey of Locus First Novel Award winners and nominees I realized how often I would pick up a science fiction of fantasy paperback and often then buy it merely because it had a Darrell K. Sweet cover.

Here is a link to a Google image search of his work:

I miss his old style on covers and he does no seem to sell any of his older work:

He was nominated 18 times for Locus best artist between 1976 and 1994.
