Think Outside the Box - Concept Artists

I have been pushed more and more at work to think outside of the box of what CG can be, how it can look, and how it should move. Below, is a collection of artists who's work would translate so well in CG, and frankly...be the most fun every to texture, light, animate...check them out!

Norman And Jenkins
8 x 10 acrylic on board

Norman lived in a small cottage outside of London that he shared with his pet Weta, Jenkins,( a large cricket-like insect native to islands in and around New Zealand) Unlike ordinary insects, Jenkins had the ability to control people’s minds. Did he use that ability for good or evil?, . . .no one knew for certain, . . .but Norman lived happily with his “pet”, He did find it curious that the local townspeople often addressed him as “King Norman” or “Your Majesty”, and when the town tax collector arrived at his home to make an assessment, he cried out that his eyes were on fire and leaped into the pond.

I love how he has little stories about his characters added to the paintings specs.
