Wow, those are awesome! I love Audrey Kawasaki and Mark Ryden. Not very 'classic', but lovely, nonetheless...

Don't have a list of influences but those are a few fav's (could repeat a few previously listed). There's some unknowns out there with a huge amount of talent that I watch too.

David Kassan is in your backyard. You should look him up. He does workshops, demos, and open studios, etc. And tell him I said hello.

Cheers.

I love many of those artists, they are quite spectacular. Haven't heard of David Kassan though, I'll check him out!

Have you heard of some of the artists I listed, like Jacob Collins? He's a phenomenal figure artist.

You had already listed him, and a few others I'd recommend, but here's a few more you might like.
