Description

Wow, this was so much fun to put together, I had to edit the hell out of my influences just to get these, that was the hardest part. Once it's done though it's really interesting to step back and look at how the different art that influences you looks when its all stacked up according to the degree of the effect on your own work. I can't wait to see more people do these, I'm particularly looking forward to seeing the influences of the people on my list, I know Claire Wendlings going to appear on quite a number of them.

P.S. It was only after I got to writing this entries description that I realized I omitted Adam Hughes from my map, that doesn't make any sense, that guys influence has had a major impact on my stuff, but I had to give a spot to Ron Cobb, so thanks for taking the hit for him Adam!

Clockwise starting in the upper left corner, Chris Sprouse-Clement Sauve-Dave Johnson-Alex Toth-Mike Mignola-Eric Canete-Jason Pearson-Jack Kirby-Cory Walker-Art Adams-Ron Cobb-Rob Haynes- and in the middle Michael Golden!

Michael Golden is one of the most underated artists of his generation. And possibly the most (indirectly) influential artist of the 90s "extreme style." Without Michael Golden, we would have a different looking Art Adams. Without Art Adams, no bad Art Adams imitators and probably no Image Comics.
