A fine example of an airbrushed alien world from Mark Salwowski, produced for the cover of the 1989 book “Sin Of Origin” by John Barnes. The plot involves missionaries sent from Earth trying to convert the inhabitants of the planet Randall to Christianity and the conflict this causes with its three indigenous aliens species – one of the more original Sci-Fi novel ideas…

A lovely picture. I have been a fan of Mark’s work since I came across his pictures online in the mid 1990s. And he has a cool website too.
