Alan Phillips  has created over 300 book jacket covers, and he has illustrated a diverse selection of classic literature, including works by Robert Frost, Rudyard Kipling, Jack Kerouac, among many others. He is a much-sought after artist known for his ability to provide masterful illustrations that succinctly complement literature, and his use of resonant color harmonies accentuate the depth and dimension of his engaging portraits.  Phillips has illustrated several children’s books and his artwork has graced the pages of The New York Times, Boston Globe, National Geographic, Tennis, Golf Illustrated, Snow Country, Polo, Field & Stream, Reader’s Digest and dozens of other publications. The talent of Alan Phillips is a masterful contribution to this unique presentation of Faulkner’s brilliant novel. For more information on Alan Phillips, read the artist's Bio.
