Frank Frazetta - Movie Poster tribute

Frank Frazetta - Movie poster tribute
I love Frank Frazetta's artwork, not much more to say here - I could, for my first post on his works, use the typical swords, sorcery and women - but I won't (for now!). I thought I'd take a look at his film poster works. I'm sure there are more, if I find them, I'll add them - but enjoy! The last one's a real treat, I mean - come on, Frazetta does Clint Eastwood??!

Richard Powers - The Master of Sci-Fi Surrealism

Richard Powers - The Master of  Sci-fi Surrealism

To me, no one quite captures the 'alien-ness' of other worlds than Richard Powers. The true pioneering 'sci-fi surrealist', his surreal and visionary images captured the imagination of many and made sci-fi 'cool'. I highly recommend the book 'The Art of Richard Powers' by Jane Frank - the only problem I have with it, is that many of the images are reproduced too small to see a lot of detail, but it covers a wide range of his works. The following images will demonstrate how beautifully his vibrant, stirring imagery transferred to cover art of various science fiction novels.
