Who are some of your favorite illustrators and why?
(more questions)

Gina Triplett's work is lovely, great sense of line and very organic. Deanne Cheuk's work is wonderfull & subtle. I love Ferris Plock's work he's got such a great sense of humor, there is so much playful energy in his work but there's a certain depth to it as well, well its intriguing. Lately though, I've been going back to looking at fecalface.com to see what everyone is up to in SF, that art scene is continuing to blow up.
