Cover art for the 1991 novel Spill by Les Standiford. The image is original artwork by artist Peter Thorpe. Thorpe has granted me permission to post this on Wikipedia. The art has a blurb by Tony Hillerman, the author's name, the book title. Underneath this is a turned over tanker truck. Beneath that is a landscape of a mountain campsite. Much of the cover is black.
This file is the smaller 72dpi version of the two the artist sent me. This image will only be used for this article. It will be used as the main visual identification for this novel on Wikipedia.

This image is used to identify the book on Amazon and on Les Standiford's website. I wrote the artist via email and he gave permission for me to put it on the wikipedia page for Spill.
From pjthorpe@bellsouth.net to jamison.shipley@gmail.com at 17:23 EST on 25 June, 2020 the author wrote the following: Jamison, Thanks for letting me get a better scan of the Spill cover to you. Attached here is the cover actual size at 72 dpi and at 300 dpi. If you need it to be a specific size for Wikipedia I can do that for you too.
I had forgotten that Tony did the blurb for the cover. I knew Hillerman and did his covers for Harper & Row/HarperCollins for 20 years. He was a great fellow to work with. Also, it’d be nice if you credited me for the cover. Thanks! Peter
