Discovering "new" artists
-
@smceccarelli yea, I saw that. That would actually be a really cool idea for this forum.
-
Ooh, that WOULD be a fun idea...hmmm...
-
@smceccarelli Great idea! And I just happened to stumble across this guy a few weeks ago and he immediately became an artist who I would love to rip off---er, I mean, paint like:
Not going to post any pics. Just seriously: his whole website is full of awesome work.
-
@mattramsey Wonderful! Such great work! And great rendering technique - definitely I am going to study this one. I love artists who can render and still keep the line. I have tried this technique only once or twice - should invest more into it.
-
Don Seegmiller http://seegmillerart.blogspot.com/ he's amazing at rendering but I'm really drawn to his black and white drawings...I love his hatching.
-
I added Iraville to my list of inspiration!
Lately I have been staring at Colin Stimpson and Daniela Volpari's work for hours:

I came across this artist a month or so ago. I don't know much about him, but I admire his work.

@evilrobot @audrey-dowling @Randy-Smith these are all amazing! The only one I knew is Don Segmiller. Colin Stimpson is just awesome....this is the harbinger of a book-buying frenzy....

@smceccarelli https://www.instagram.com/iraville/ Funny I was just watching a youtube video of this artist and wondering who it was. So amazing! You already have her here but I had to say how much I admire her work.

Thanks for starting this thread! Did not know of Sergio Pablos and Somnath Pal before but I will definitely be checking out their work.
I have pretty much only discovered concept artists by name in the last year and so far my most followed ones include Armand Serrano, Paul Felix, Marcelo Vignali, Jake Parker and Aaron Blaise. -
@bluesky71 Absolutely. As well as Arthur Rackam and, my personal favourite from that epoch, Franklin Booth.
The story goes that Franklin's only contact with the outside world in his remote outback was magazines. As he had never heard about engraving, he thought the pictures in the magazine were drawn with pen and ink, and so he developed a pen-and-ink technique that mimics engraving...
