I discovered the work of Druillet on the covers of Heavy Metal magazine. His imagery fits well alongside the likes of Moebius, Ian Miller and Caza.

Richard Powers
Powers brought surrealism to the science fiction book cover. By blending science fiction imagery with the surreal style he created a unique look that set a standard for science fiction book covers.

Jon Chandler
Chandler has made a very bizarre comic strip "Battle Of The Planets" which is filled with many strange looking characters getting into very strange adventures. The costumed character with the pointed nose and ears brings to mind an art brut version of Maurice Sendak. Really amazing work.

This gallery contains a selection of surreal paintings, many of which seem partly influenced by Remedios Varo.

Piotr Marek
Marek was a Polish artist who died at the early age of 34 in 1985. His paintings are filled with hauntingly surreal environments with figures who's anatomies are often blended into the landscapes. One painting shows an eye socket as a glowing entrance to a cave. The paintings are very powerful and come across as drug induced nightmares.
You can see additional work by Marek such as drawings of his at this gallery.

Philippe Caza
Here is one of my favorite fantasy artists. Caza's pulp magazine style is a good example of the best Heavy Metal magazine ever had to offer.
His graphic novel "L'ÂGE D'OMBRE" is one of my favorites and has had a great influence in my own comic making. This site isn't in english but is easy enough to navigate through the various galleries of art.

There's some very peculiar sculptures of unusual objects in this gallery. The terra cotta sculptures in the "Orphaned Teapots" exhibit mixes the characteristics of living creatures with tea pots. Very interesting work.

Premysl Martinec
Martinec's drawings are filled with abstracted characters in surreal landscapes. There's a disturbing array of loosely rendered cartoonish characters bleeding from bizarre wounds.

Brian Mckenzie
Brian has a fantastic blog where he's posted a selection of his bizarre prints. There is an emphasis on strange characters in costumes and odd creatures. Scroll down his blog to the "seven viruses" drawing, really amazing work. Be sure to check back often as I'm sure there will be much more strange imagery posted here in the future.
