Rainbow Run
From the book by Grant Callin, published by Baen Books 1986. Basically, the story is of an exploration into the gaseous depths of Saturn.

The painting was large, about 30
Tourist Attraction		 From the book by Hon. Newt Gingrich. Published by Baen Books 1984. In Feb. 1984, just months after I arrived in New York City, Jim Baen gave me the chance to do a space art cover, from someone I've never heard of-a Georgia congressman named Newt Gingrich. Basically, the book laid out a blueprint for future space exploration, starting with the Space Shuttle. It turned out 'Window of Opportunity' was prophetic, but in name only. The window has closed, the space program dead, and, events of the past weeks, are the heartbreaking, sight of the last Space Shuttle over DC, headed to a museum. Gouache on Masonite.
