Ed Emshwiller is my personal favourite. I’ve got a fairly sizeable collection of vintage sci-fi pulp paperbacks, many featuring his art. I’m even half-through being tattooed with Emsh-inspired ink!

Worth mentioning, the Sci-Fi Museum in Seattle has a number of original Emsh paintings. Just one reason to check that place out (it’s beyond fantastic).

Cheers!

Hey Gary, Thank’s for that – I’ve never heard of Ed Emshwiller, so will do more research!

not sure of the exact publication it’s from, but that is most definitely a painting by the brilliant Ed Emshwiller.
