A preliminary concept by Michael Whelan for the DISTANT STARS anthology by Samuel R. Delany. While the concept was never used by the publisher, the thought behind it led to SENTINELS, Michael’s first non-commissioned painting.

Michael Whelan Original Color Comp For Asimov's "Foundation's Edge"

Color comp for TRANTORIAN DREAM (cover for Asimov’s Foundation’s Edge) that is listed now on eBay. Low starting bid and an excellent buyout price for a preliminary concept for such an iconic painting.

Note: this isn’t our auction. I just found it interesting enough to post since these don’t come to market that often.
