Which artists do you draw inspiration from?
-
I love some that you have said: Pascal Campion, Loish, Wouter Tulp
Also I love browsing theses artists' work (all very different styles!): Carter Goodrich is just brilliant, Carine Hinder, Eve Ventrue, Sam Toft. In a very different style, I love Birgitta Sif's style, it's so sweet. and the one who lead me to SVS, Will Terry is a big inspiration as I feel close to his style in the way I draw and paint -
oh yeah, another one, even though to fully appreciate it, you need to speak French (she's hilarious)! but some of her illustrations speak for themselves and her art itself is very well mastered: Nathalie Jomard
she can be cartoony or very poetic. I mean, how cute is that? https://www.facebook.com/103641416345805/photos/a.104015079641772.2656.103641416345805/985846264791978/?type=3&theater -

So many artists influence and encourage me. The two that spring to mind immediately are James Gurney and Terryl Witlach. I've followed their work since high school and both of them have encouraged and motivated me to improve over the years...hopefully a trend that continues! I also follow TONS of artists online via instagram, tumblr, deviatnart, etc...but it would take pages to list them all.

@JiÅ™Ã-Kůs I just added these to my Pinterest collection. I love this artist and his painterly style.

I have been keeping up with Nathan Fowkes' postings on his blogs for several years. I don't think there is a better person out there to emulate when it relates to environments and lighting. James Gurney is another great. Here is a good example of Nathan's sketches he posts. He's been doing these daily in gouache for years.
