Description:
: "I spent decades searching for the right artist-the one who could...come away with such a complete understanding of the texture and imagery and feel of the book that he could render a perfect pictorial representation....And then Jim Burns turned up."--Robert Silverberg. Science fiction imagery can open our minds to unimagined worlds...when the painter has an unbridled and rare vision. And, Jim Burns is just such an artist. Without ever losing the human dimension, his works hint at what may someday be. His intriguing illustration for The Ceremonies, which combines human figures with an evocative landscape, exemplifies Burns' pure genius: it resonates powerfully with eerie atmospheric lighting, unusual colors, beautifully characterized faces, and multiple narrative levels. Other richly fascinating pieces include Born with the Dead, a golden-toned and dreamlike book cover; the sleek design for the spinner in the hit film Blade Runner, and the mystical alien cityscape for the book Rendezvous with Rama 3.
