*HEEP-sters,*

I really like the artwork that *IOANNIS* has provided for *URIAH
HEEP's*last couple of albums.

If any of y'all like *Mr. Ioannis'* artwork too, you may like the artwork
of artist *Thomas Cole* as well (?).

Here's a link to a site featuring *Mr. Cole's* artwork:

Enjoy.

Take Care, Everyone!
