Spectrum 15! Syble here, posting for Arich this time around. We just found out that Arich's piece Crusader made it in. For those unfamiliar with the book, it's a yearly compilation of the of the very best in contemporary fantastic art from a variety of fields, such as comic books, advertising, film, and fine art. Annually a select panel of jurors chooses from thousands of works submitted by some of the biggest names in fantasy art. This year hard working artists from all over the world submitted more than 5000 works of art for consideration, and only 343 made the cut for inclusion in the book. Other Spectrum regulars include amazing artists such as Frank Frazetta, Carlos Huante and Justin Sweet. So, needless to say, this is a major honor. I think Art Director Irene Gallo in her blog, TheArtDepartment, said it best. When a young artist earns a spot on the pages of Spectrum, she says, "...it can be the first time their work is being seen by thousands of potential clients, with the unspoken caption 'best of the best.'"
