Many incredible etchings/lithographs in this gallery. The meshing of architecture and landscape is very bizarre.

"Babylon the Great, the Mother of Harlots,"
Here's a great religious illustration by Philip Malpass. You can see an additional sketch of the image here.

Scott Flament
For those not familiar with Flament, you're in for an exciting ride through a strange world of monsters and ancient architecture. His worlds are so full of intricate details that it's easy to become lost in. I don't think I've seen a fantasy world so fully realized in paint since Wayne Barlowe's "Inferno". There is a great deal of Lovecraft influence in much of the works.
Click here to read a biography on the artist.
Here are some large examples of Flament's paintings.
The Lady of the Worm (contains nudity)
After the hunt
The Sanctuary Bath
The mistresses of the Crab
The Valley of the Sirens
The Ancient Valley of Maoana Kor
The Errante
The Fleeing
On the Threshold of Liv Gvorn
Harmonie du Soir
Bolom Combor Stellar Haven
The Journey of the Moonflowers
Neptunian des Illusion
The Paths of the Moonflowers

Aurora Consurgens
"Dating from the 15th century, the Aurora consurgens' is a Medieval alchemical treatise. The Aurora consurgens is sometimes attributed to Thomas Aquinas. Unusually, the manuscript contains thirty-eight fine watercolour drawings." quote from wikipedia.
More illustrations from this book can be found here.

You'll find over 200 of Victor's paintings in this gallery. The array of imaginative landscapes on display here is overwhelming. There are many wretched beasts creeping about many of the paintings.

Terrance Lindall
I've been a huge fan of Terrance Lindall for a very long time. I discovered his incredible monster filled artwork in the pages of Heavy Metal magazine back in the 80's. Back in 1997 I had a website that focused on displaying artists like those that I post links to here everyday. Interestingly a few of those pages connected to that gallery are still alive, such as the page I made for Tim Burton. But I had a gallery dedicated to Terrance Lindall which has apparently gone offline over the last decade. It's a shame that in that time there still isn't a better online gallery of his work, perhaps someday
This gallery has many large sized works by Lindall.
You'll find 8 works by Lindall based on "Paradise Lost" here.

Andy Bolus
This gallery contains a really weird combination of painting and drawing layered on top of pornographic photographs. The results are nightmarish to say the least.
There's also some weird comic book pages that have been manipulated, a very interesting idea. This page titled "Satanex" appears to be a collection of scans from a mini book put out by the artist. If you enjoy this artist I'm sure you'll also appreciate the works of Jonathon Rosen. I was reminded of his work upon looking at Bolus's imagery.
This site was recommended to me by another great artist I've recently featured, Shobo Shobo.

Sukumar Ray
"(1887-1923) was a Bengali nonsense poet, story writer and playwright. He is often compared to Lewis Caroll. His works such as the collection of poems "Aboltabol" ("Gibberish"), novella "HaJaBaRaLa", short story collection "Pagla Dashu" ("Crazy Dashu") and play "Chalachittachanchari" are considered nonsense masterpieces of the stature of Alice in Wonderland and some of the greatest treasures of Bangla liturature. More than 80 years after his death, Ray remains one of the most popular of children's writers in both West Bengal and Bangladesh." quote taken from article on Sukumar at wikipedia.
