About JIm Burns

Back to Attending Members List
Jim Burns is an internationally acclaimed science-fiction and fantasy artist. His first publishing commission came in 1972 whilst he was still attending St. Martin’s School of Art in London. Using both traditional and digital techniques, his artwork has adorned the covers of many hundreds of novels within the wider genre of the ‘fantastical’. During his long career he has been awarded 3 Hugos as well as 14 BSFA Awards and a Chesley Lifetime Achievement Award at Loncon in 2014. 
Currently he is moving away from the world of publishing, creating more personal pieces and also painting to private commission. His collection ‘Hyperluminal’ was published by Titan Books in 2014.
