New cover by Jukka Murtosaari


I've keeping up with my friend Jukka Murtosaari's appearances on book covers. As you know (or may remember from this blog), he's a Finnish guy and lives in Portugal and tries to get along without a net access and does everything by hand (he even writes his letters by hand!). His covers are usually nice oil colour works and he handles the pulp/paperback style with ease.

Unluckily he gets too few job offers, so I'm hoping that keeping his name up will earn him a bit more fame. Here's his latest cover for Gary Lovisi's Gryphon Books - the book collects all the Sherlock Holmes pastiches the rather recently died short story master Edward D. Hoch wrote. You should be able to find more details at Gryphon Books's website here.
