While having an excellent sense of color and composition, his work is hyperrealistic ... of things like a Githyanki. How did he get a photo of a Githyanki? Sometimes I cant believe my eyes. It conveys a sense of a vivid world.Another favorite is <a href="http://www.bing.com/images/search?q=Jason%20Engle" target="_blank">Jason Engel</a>. His work is more stylized. His fields of color are gemmy. The visual abstraction conveys a mood, while still portraying a realistic presentation of what the world looks like.</blockquote>
