Mark Poole is one of my favorite old-school MTG card artists. His website is here and he's going to be making an appearance in Charlotte at the Star City Games $10,000 Open Weekend. Hopefully I can get some cards signed there.

Found this nice quote today:

We have art that we do not die of the truth.

Richie Proffitt Pictures

2008-07-10

These are some images I pulled from my friend Richie's myspace page (in case that page goes down in the future).

Richie passed away recently due to an illness. You can see he was quite a good artist and we're fortunate to have what we have of his imagination perserved in his artwork.

H.R. Giger

2008-01-07

I've always been a fan of H.R. Giger since the Alien movies. I'd describe his style as surrealistic, post-modern, and gothic. I recommend everyone visit his site (www.hrgiger.com) - if nothing else just to check out the jewelery he makes. His site is a bit too commercial for my tastes, but he is an amazing artist and you can see some of the neat stuff he's created over the years.

Giger's American site is a great jumping off point for other artists and themes.  Morpheus Gallery is another site where you can see some of Giger's work.

This one resembling Medusa is one of my favorites:
