Jonathan Allen and Steve Carey

 The artist Jonathan Allen (and dear friend, full disclosure) designed the cover  for The Selected Poems of Steve Carey (Subpress, click here to see the cover ).  Jonathan Allen’s website makes for fantastic browsing. He recently had a painting at The Whitney Art Party and it was featured in Style (which is sort of funny, considering his art questions the values of such magazines, according to me). The man is a massive talent. He’s designed other covers for books of poetry and journals so contact him via his website and get a piece of him before he becomes so huge he retires to a Greek Island or something.
