I got to James Jean’s site via Computerlove (a site I very much recommend) and was immediately impressed by the quality of the illustration. Some of them remind me of the frontispiece for a set of encyclopaedias I have, dating from the 1930s: great tableaux of activities, incredible detail and fantastic technique and artistry. I’ll scan the frontispiece in soon… meanwhile, pay a visit to his site, and maybe commission him or something: James Jean.
