Well I haven't forgotten to post, but mostly been too focused on the artists I found. The wonderful Eric Fortune and the well known Peter de Seve.
Eric Fortune is an amazing artist dealing with a dreamy world. When I first looked at his site I was sure his work was all Photoshop, but no, it is in fact acrylic on watercolor paper! I had no idea that sort of paint could do the beautiful things he creates. His characters are elongated and exaggerated yet portray such a realistic sense of being. I love his cut people or those mutilated in several parts. It makes me think, at that angle and at that instance how you could have avoided being maimed so terribly.
Peter de Seve is probably the more well known of all the artists I've discussed primarily for his work with Ice Age and Finding Nemo. His concept art for those movies are very well done, very stylized. Frankly, I think his New Yorker Magazine covers are hilarious and the best of his work. Watercolors and pencil work are his forte it seems (though I've heard rumor of a magic pencil he uses) hahaha.
Anyway that's it for now. I kind of want to experiment with watercolor paper and acrylic, but not sure if I'm willing to throw down that much for something I have no idea to do.
