Interview with Sharon Tancredi, Illustrator of Tempest Rising

I wanted to direct you art fans out there over to an interview that the blog DarkFaerieTales.com did with one of my favorite Orbit illustrators, Sharon Tancredi. You’ll recognize Sharon’s work immediately if you’ve seen Nicole Peeler’s Jane True series. I’ve just received the art from Sharon for Jane True #3 and it’s fantastic! We’ll be launching the cover here soon. But for now, check out the interview and some of Sharon’s other work. (I love her fine art pieces.)

This is my favorite part of the interview, of course:

“…it takes a clever and forward-thinking art director to sit through all the initial hyperbole and keep the faith in the risks they decided to take with commissioning something that was a bit ‘different’.”

(Ooh, forward-thinking. That’s me!)
