Behind the Cover: Dan Skinner
Jun. 9th, 2009 10:00 amDan Skinner is the owner of Cerberus Inc., specialized in Photoshop cover art.
With five years of photography and working as a cover artist for over twenty-seven print and electronic publishers, Dan Skinner brings a unique digital combination of original photographs and creative art to, among others, Cobblestone Press and Dreamspinner Press. This young (more or less 30 years old) St. Louis artist, inspired by the art of Boris Vallejo, is recognized by his vivid use of color and the intense emotional expressions of the characters on his covers.

He also tried his hand with a novella, that had quite a bit of autobiographical connotations, Coverboy, released by Dreamspinner Press (http://elisa-rolle.livejournal.com/369530.html)
