I was reminded of Marek’s work on Twitter recently. I first saw his portfolio in my publishing days (Solaris, Black Library), and was always impressed by his range of subjects and styles. I loved this top picture, and had it as my desktop for a while, because it just seemed evocative and had a striking perspective. I think he still does a lot of cover art for publishers, as well as concepts for games companies. Check out his website if you like the art.

Another post where I scour the internet to find some of the most interesting SF and Fantasy art for your viewing pleasure. This time is artist Steve Jung, who has a more textured, layered and painterly style than some of the others I’ve linked to in the past – and gives good battle scene, too. As usual, the image links take you to the artist’s site.

Hours spent trawling the internet can produce good things – I found Jamie Jones’ website last night. There are some very strongly portrayed characters here, a lovely use of light, and the dude gives good monster. He also does a lot of concept work, which seems to put bread on the table for a lot of artists these days. Each of the pictures links to his portfolio.
