Artist Inspirations

I thought it would be an interesting think to list my current favorite and most inspirational artists of this time. It would be interesting to look back in 5 years and see how that list changes. Anyways, here it goes.

Dead artists:
Frank Frazetta
John Singer Sargent
Manet
Rembrandt
N.C. Wyeth
Howard Pyle
Norman Rockwell
Alphonse Mucha  (not just his posters, but his painting are sweet!)


Alive:
Jeffrey Jones
Greg Manchess
James Gurney
Ashley Wood
Jon Foster
Peter de Seve
Mike Mignola
Brom
Ron Searle
Donato Giancola

Really, I have a ton of modern and living ones, So I'm Just going to list the big ones.

Also funny thing to note, 99% of these guys are tradtionional painters, or use traditional methods, oh, how the times have changed! I look back to my freshman year of college when I was sure I was going to be a digital artist forever. :P
