Richard and I had the honor to paint this cover for the book "Dark Dreams" written by our friend the great Raoul Renier. Thank him for the opportunity and the kind words.

Here is a little sneak peak about our working process:

Cover arts for the upcoming novels by Leslie L. Lawrence. Yes, I worked again with my friend Richard Vass. The commission was a honour to us because "LLL" is one of the most popular authors in Hungary for more than two decades.

And the winner is...

I've just received the email: "Ifin Nights 2" has been accepted for inclusion in Spectrum 19. The book will be published by Underwood Books in November. You know this painting is a collaboration with my so much talented collegue Richard Vass. We are extremely proud of its success.

"With all the experience and professionalism of a consummate artist, Peter Tikos is an absolute pleasure to work with. Peter first caught my attention through the slush-pile of all things, and has since proven himself over and over to be an absolute pro. A disciplined artist with a solid grounding in the fundamentals of creating world-class art, Peter continues to take direction well and prove himself a top-tier artist even under tight deadlines and heavy work-loads. His work is exceptional and his unique visual storytelling continues to stop fans in their tracks. I look forward to watching his career for a long time to come."
