I like the artwork for Blessed Orator and a few others but its cards like Hunter's Insight, Descendant's Path and Lifelink that brought my attention to her.Jamminhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15887382098534348982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4461869454202308168.post-42890303441093690572012-04-23T17:27:02.395-07:002012-04-23T17:27:02.395-07:00Yeah, Tragic Poet is awesome.

But Art Nouveau is my all-time favorite art genre, and Hoover is the only actual MtG artist to do Nouveau stuff. <br /><br />Oh, and Terese Neilsen has climbed the ranks to one of my favorites, in recent years.Thaumaturgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07734372825472901455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4461869454202308168.post-85155260519816983462012-04-23T16:28:50.123-07:002012-04-23T16:28:50.123-07:00Rebecca Guay is pretty good.

My first ever magic deck was W/U tribal birds with Eesha and Kangee, I bought it from a friend who was quitting magic and soon after that I was buying Onslaught Boosters; the rest is history. xD<br /><br />John Avon goes without saying. Adarkar Wastes is a beautiful piece and one of my favorites by him.<br /><br />As for Quinton Hoover, I can't say I'm a huge fan though Tragic Poet, Tundra Wolves and Children of Korlis are all striking pieces.Jamminhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15887382098534348982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4461869454202308168.post-43864434580104873272012-04-23T15:59:26.309-07:002012-04-23T15:59:26.309-07:00Oh boy, that'd be a long list.

Jason Chan is pretty amazing as well, Gisela and Angelic Overseer are excellent examples showcasing his talent. <br /><br />Who would you say your favorite all time mtg artists are?Jamminhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15887382098534348982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4461869454202308168.post-56925787409852774322012-04-23T14:21:44.679-07:002012-04-23T14:21:44.679-07:00I agree on all points, especially the Voss/Schirme...I agree on all points, especially the Voss/Schirmer artwork. They've done a couple of "meh" peices, but by and large they have been amazing. Not quite enough to top Jason Chan as best of the current crop of artists (look at Gisela, and tell me that ain't beautiful!), but they are definitely among the best and most exciting artists in the game.Thaumaturgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07734372825472901455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4461869454202308168.post-67278704690771414852012-04-23T13:17:16.617-07:002012-04-23T13:17:16.617-07:00Cathar's Crusade is definitely going into Ghav...Cathar's Crusade is definitely going into Ghave. Since it was spoiled, I wondered how I even played the deck without it. Juniper Order Ranger is similar but the Crusade is definitely being added.<br /><br />Also, Commander's Authority has some dazzling art. I find myself totally engrossed by Jana and Johannes' work. I was scrolling through the spoilers looking for any work done by them. Best new artists on the mtg team in my humble opinion.Jamminhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15887382098534348982noreply@blogger.com
