      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...

                                          Mary Blair. https://www.pinterest.com/ashleyisenhour/mary-blair/ I guess I'm a little embarrassed that I didn't know who she was until recently...the funny thing is I had all these reference images on my desktop of all the Disney stuff I love for years but had no idea who the artist was. Turns out they were pretty much all by her. Beautiful design and use of color in all her work. 0_1476806859397_3124e545492c2d753b1a9139b80f7592.jpg 0_1476806874332_o-ALICE-900.jpg
