Michael Whelan

Anyone ever check this guy out? I have some posters from a book called Something in my Eye. He also did the artwork for some of the recent Lovecraft Collection books.

Yeah, I love books almost as much as I love film. I just bought a bunch of books. Boy's Life by Robert R. McCammon and the first three Dark Tower books by King. I read the first one (The Gunslinger) while I was younger but I need to re-read it so I'll understand the follow-ups. Great book though.

Michael Whelan is pretty well known.... 4 obvious reasons, his pictures are great,....

what about those artists who have amazing talent, but never get recognition or fame like others...

Not sure how famous this bloke is, but i had 2 include some local Aussie surrealism.... the menu system on site is different,, not bad i reckon::

Ohh, yeahhh . . . how could I forget Michael Whelan. Good call, Avenger. This guy's work is top-notch. I have a Lovecraft collection with his art on it, and it's some of the creepiest stuff I have ever seen . . . very chilling . . . .

Definitely one of my favorites.
