I think this may be where the art originally appeared on the cover of this Spanish mag circa 1982 :

No clue, it's hard to find titles for his horror illustrations that was mainly used for horror novels. Unfortunately we can't ask him anymore since he already passed away. But I must agree, his art would be perfect for Heavy Metal album covers, especially worst crap like this:

Ballestar was doing cover art for Helmut Relegerd's (Jason Dark) novels about investigator/witch hunter John Sinclair

for some reason I can't copy page address. The number of the book is 203 The name is Um Mitternacht am Galgenberg (At Midnight on the Galgenberg)
Some of his artwork were stolen either idea-wise (Children of Bodom Something Wild and Follow the reaper) or just used with or without permission as Trojan (Beauty in Darkness Vol. 4, Benediction Subconscious Terror and The Grand Leveller, Tyrant (Ger) Ruling the World (Blind Revolution laser Light edition))
