comic booky art. oh, and furniture porn. and sushi.

these are a couple of the artists on devart i was talking about posting a couple of entries back, suddenly made that much more relevant by the recent ereserves doc + discussion about comic books today. i really dig their art, mostly because of the cartoony look to it. greatlp has more of a comic artist's style while thweatted's style is more cartoony. her sketches are positively awe-inspiring to look at (but that may just be me). she does a good number of art for old cartoons (does anybody remember the snorks? alvin and the chipmunks? yeah, i'm a geek). anyway, they're both definitely worth checking out.

there are two artists' galleries i used to frequent who eventually became comic book artists for their respective fandoms. i didn't know them personally, but it was still kind of surreal seeing their names appear in print after knowing their names via the internet for a couple of years before. /digression

(seriously, check out the links. who could possibly pass up the furniture porn?)

edit: the sheepman just pointed out a site to me called austinsushi.com. basically, it's a sushi guide to austin, as it so clearly states in the lower right corner of the banner at the top, and holy crap, it makes me happy (i'm a big sushi freak). i'm at the same time saddened, because while it lists practically 20 locations in austin for sushi, i've only been to 5 of those. clearly i need to go do some extensive city hopping, very soon.
