Who's your Influence?

[Naloda]

Hey all! I thought it might be cool to have a reference thread for different artists that have really influenced you or your work. I personally am really facinated with Jon Foster and Dave McKean. How about you guys?

Well, it probably goes without saying that just visiting this site is a heck of a lot of inspiration.

For me, I enjoy drawing and painting animals, so Ursula Vernon is a big inspiration for me, as are alot of artists on Yerf.com, a professional anthropomorphic animal gallery.

I also love gazing at paintings by Salvador Dali, Van Gogh, Monet, Escher, and others. I'm a big fan of illusional works, and paintings with beautiful use of colour.
