The Spindle's End

First, I apologize for some of the radio silence this month. My home network has been a bit screwy, which severely limited my connectivity. Full service seems to be restored.

So! New eye candy.

Jon Foster is a cover artist and illustrator for traditional publications as well as comic books and Magic The Gathering cards. Some of his most recognizable work has been done for Liz Williams, Cherie Priest, and for the Buffy The Vampire Slayer Comics. He typically works in oil on canvas, but also uses digital effects on some of his work. Again, he has a very distinctive style. There's some Asian influence, as well as a talent for gears and other machinery. You can see more of his work on his website. 

There aren't many cover artists currently working in watercolors or pen and ink, and I always think this is a shame whenever I spot one of Law's covers. I find them to be unique, beautiful, and extremely eye catching. She's also one of the few cover artists and illustrators who sell their work to the general public. Love on of the covers below? Check out her website, and chances are either the original is for sale, or she'll sell you a print. Her tarot deck is just amazing, and someday I plan to buy the accompanying art books because a tarot sized card is just too small a format to truly appreciate the details Law puts into her work. She's also active on DeviantArt and Etsy.
