Cover Art, Tower Poetry


Beautiful cover art has contributed significantly to the popular success of Tower Poetry and its predecessor, The Tower , in the past three and one-half decades.

Tower Poetry cover art is currently contributed by Hamilton artist Cynthia Hill, owner of the Blue Angel Gallery, 243 James Street North. Cynthia has been our cover artist since 2005.


                       

Artist Kim Davis created our cover designs from 1990 to 2004. Kim is a Dundas artist who lives at 16 Kemp Drive, Dundas ON L9H 2M9 (tel. 905-627-9575). Her work includes garden sculptures, pen and ink renderings and watercolours. Kim's design for Vol.40 No.2 (1991) appears at the top of this page and on the TPS website home page, and illustrates the tower at McMaster University for which The Tower Poetry Society is named.

Kim's lovely work graces the cover of the
50th Anniversary Edition of Tower Poetry,
lending Vol.50 No.1 a timeless distinction.
Her artwork also appears on the covers of many issues of Tower Poetry featured elsewhere on this website.


Editor-in-Chief Joanna Lawson presents
Kim Davis with a token of the Society's appreciation for the many illustrations
that Kim has contributed to Tower Poetry covers.

In the late 1970's and most of the 1980's, TPS President and artist Vincent Frances designed the publication's covers:
