A peculiar combination of taxidermy and creative animal reconstruction.
A french? artist who's made some incredibly detailed pencil drawings of very unusual subjects. There is an insane reinterpretation of Bosch's center piece from his "Garden of Earthly Delights" painting. Check it out here. You can click on different sections of the image for additional details. The website is in French so here are some links to take you directly to some of the more interesting art on the site.
The paintings and drawings of Chris Pottinger are filled with puss oozing, eyeball drooping, mutated oddities. But for all the gruesomeness of the creatures, it always comes across as humorous. This probably has to do with the large cartoon eyes and goofy expressions of the creatures portrayed, as well as the vibrant cartoon colors used in the artwork. And for the horrible state many of the things appear to be in, they still seem to be enjoying it.
Verlinde's imagery is filled with very fantastic and dream like imagery. There is often a nightmarish quality to his images with a focus on death, as well as images with a sense of whimsical fantasy. His detailed painting techniques verge on the quality of the old masters which makes the works appear much older than they are.
