Some of My Favorites

When it comes to art I can be very picky, but there are definitely a few who's work holds a special place in my heart. Below are 3 artists whom over the last few years have had a significant impact on my work. Can anyone point out where their influence can be found in my work?

Parra
The colors, text and characters just grab me. nothing but unique and charming. These witty illustrations keep me inspired for days. the absence of lines definitely helps create the feel of his style and has challenged me to often attempt to rethink my work and the heavy lines I'm so dependent on.


Steven Harrington
I've been a fan of Mr. Harrington's work for a number of years now. I think he was one of the main influences that started my interest in non digital art and especially in my past interests in screen printing. I think he is responsible for the comment I have a recieved a number of times that my work is very reminiscent of Heinz Edelmann and the Yellow submarine artwork.



Anthony Lister
While I often wish I could paint outside the lines and still produce amazing art, I realize I'm a bit too much of a perfectionist. Good thing I still have Mr. Lister's work to look at. I think he's spawn more random and mostly trashed expereiments in my art than any other artist or source of inspiration. I have nothing but love for his work!

Anyone else want to share their favorite artists?
