Fantasy Artists

[Fax Celestis]

I've recently gone on a kick to collect the websites of fantasy artists I like. So far, I've found the following:

Lucio Parrillo (http://www.lucioparrillo.com/home.htm), James Zhang (http://www.jzconcepts.com/), Jason Chan (http://www.jasonchanart.com/gallery.htm) (whose Waterfall (http://www.jasonchanart.com/gallery/2005/original/waterfall_big2.jpg) is currently my backdrop), Miguel Coimbra (http://www.toastyyy.com/html/folio.htm), Steve Prescott (http://www.rottface.com/), Daarken (http://www.daarken.com/Flash2005/main.html), Warren Mahy and Greg Broadmore (http://www.thebattery.co.nz/index.htm), Anne Stokes (http://www.annestokes.com/gallery.htm), and Eva Widermann (http://www.eva-widermann.de/).

Who do you like?

I rather like April Lee and Steve Argyle (no linkage - workplace has the filter up). They're the lead artists for the L5R RPG.

Scope out the gent who posted his oots fan arts on the art page. They were fantastic.

[Zherog]

I like the work of Amanda Patton (http://www.alarrasgate.com/portfolio/).

Luis Royo, although I think much of his work is not-work-safe enough that I won't link it.

Cool. I don't know anbody like that though, so. . . meh.:smallsigh:

Luis Royo, although I think much of his work is not-work-safe enough that I won't link it.

Heh. I just goggled his site and my employer's web filters block it because it's in the "Adult/Sexually Explicit" category.

Donato Giancola (http://www.donatoart.com/) has impressed me for a long time.

Can’t go wrong with Boris Vallejo (http://vallejo.ural.net/)

(warning Not safe for work)

[Krimm_Blackleaf]

Wayne Reynolds (http://www.waynereynolds.com/Menu.htm) is God.

[AtomicKitKat]

Ron Spencer, Boris Vallejo and his new wife Julie, can't go wrong with the Foglios, etc.:smallbiggrin:

[Xuincherguixe]

I recently found out about Frank Frazetta. He's one of those guys who it seems is extremely influential but is only famous amongst certain segments. Sort of like H.P. Lovecraft. (A lot like H.P. Lovecraft. I get the feeling people are being influenced by Frazetta without knowing him)

If you pay attention, you'll see that a lot of fantasy art (nearly all of it :P) seems to be done in a similar style.


And of course, a lot of it's full of naked women so I can't really link it. But there's always google.

Keith Parkinson (http://www.keithparkinson.com/main.php) &
Mihael Whelan (http://www.michaelwhelan.com/) are two of the best, though. :smallyuk:

[TK-Squared]

BROM (http://www.bromart.com/)

All fear the BROM.

[AslanCross]

Ron Spencer, Eva Widermann, Emily Fiegenschuh, Vinod Rams, Wayne Reynolds, Todd Lockwood, Steve Argyle and David Hudnut are among my favorite artists.
