WOW! Is all I can say. I have been collecting Shepard’s art for several years now (and admiring it for at least the last 10)…it’s great to see him in this arena.

Shepard was just recently asked to illustrate the cover of two literary classics by George Orwell -Nineteen Eighty-Four and Animal Farm. The re-issues are to hit the stands in early July so keep an eye out for them. For information on the release and re-issue, please visit www.us.penguingroup.com. Here is a little preview of the covers.
