John Picacioさんのイラストまとめ

What were your favorite SFF artworks of 2021? Have you submitted them for Chesley Award consideration yet? Do it! Just submitted a bunch to @ASFAart inc. works by @GregRuth @vanessalemen @iriscompietart + many more. Suggestion Period deadline now extended to April 8th! 1/2

Art by Abbott Handerson Thayer (1849-1921). I saw this one last month at @smithsoniannpg. Always loved it but never knew this: Underneath the surface is a portrait of the artist’s three children. After his wife died, he painted this over them to express his loss.

New deluxe art book by the great @YLossel. Page after page of stunning, inspired work. One of 2021's best art books for sure. You did it, Yoann! 🔥🔥🔥 (Blurred a bit of that beautiful artwork b/c of social media prude bots out there. Still one of my favorite Lossels.)

ALYSSA WINANS: I see so much realism on covers these days, so @AlyssaWinans' work pops forward in contrast. Her compositions aren't in line with a lot of the current new releases, which is a big asset. Even when she does art for a high-profile new release, it feels personal. 6/7

GALEN DARA: Like Rovina, she's been doing dynamite work for several years. What I love about @galendara's work is she's restless. She's *always* evolving. Never stops. Wish more artists were like that. Only four women have won the Best Pro Artist Hugo in its 68-year history. 4/7

ROVINA CAI: I love @RovinaCaiArt's work. She had a strong 2020 and she's been doing some of my favorite illustrations of the last few years. Never met her. Maybe someday I will. This piece for @JonathanStrahan's BOOK OF DRAGONS really pops on a bookstore shelf. 3/7

Heads up, ⁦@worldfantasy21⁩: Ask any question you ever wanted answered about book cover art @ ‘The Art of John Picacio’. 12noon today!!! And DO NOT MISS The WFC Art Show Reception TONIGHT @ 8pm. I’ll be signing prints, posters & #Loteria Grande Cards while supplies last!

2021 Chesley Awards Nomination Ballots DUE TONIGHT. A few of the MANY stellar works I saw on this year's Long List. *Tough* choices to make. Fun to vote. And inspiring! Get your ballots in! (Not saying I voted for these or not but I think they're dynamite. ;)) cc: @ASFAart

DAY 23: 25 works in 25 days commemorating my 25th Anniversary as a working pro artist. TODAY: My cover art for the SF anthology FAST FORWARD 2 edited by @LouAnders, featuring stories by @Paul_Cornell @doctorow @NB_Chris @iannmcdonald @paolobacigalupi & more. 1/3

DAY 22: 25 works in 25 days commemorating my 25th Anniversary as a working pro artist. TODAY: My art for James Dashner's THE 13TH REALITY: THE JOURNAL OF CURIOUS LETTERS. This is the alternate cover version as this was my preferred over the version the art director opted for. 1/2
