THE RENEGADES OF PERN (1988)
Acrylic on Watercolor Board - 20" X 30"

I was in a frenzied state trying to finish up jobs before the impending birth of our son when I had a dream about this cover. 1/3

A caravan travels the grassy plains of an alien world as a line of dragons casually flies by. A man in overcoat with bright red garb underneath leads the way with a bag slung over his shoulder. The gypsy-like wagons that follow are pulled by rough skinned pachyderms. An adult and child stand at the rail atop the foremost wagon gazing out at the vista. Tall flat top trees rise up into a sky hazy with dusk and atmospheric effects that stretch lavender and peach across the horizon.

A 饝惔饝惗饝悷饝惗 (hiti) is an ancient Newah urban water feature: a stepped, sunken courtyard with waterspouts and a central pool. These are fed through a remarkable network of pipes, reservoirs, and irrigation systems drawing water from mountain springs dozens of kilometres away. Every day, hundreds of people from the neighbourhood come to draw water, bathe, and exchange news. They are a unique and precious feature of Newa urban architecture through which neighbourhoods are created.
