Pretty pictures continued

No, this isn't affirmative action, I just thought of three more favorite artists who happen to be women:

Alison Frane:


Davina Ware:

She's done a lot of other better stuff (mainly for the Ptolemaic Terrascope) but this is all I could find on the net.

Doris Matthäus:

We appear to have similar, but not identical, taste in art - do you like Alphonse Mucha?

Not mucha. Ha ha. Um, who? ... Oh, that guy. Yeah, I do like a lot of art nouveau, but I don't really know any specific artists. His stuff reminds me of Alan Moore's Promethea comics, which has great art but I wasn't terribly excited by the story (I liked Top 10 better).

Yeah, I think Mucha was a pretty strong influence on the Promethea art.

It's the cover for Abunai!'s Universal Mind Decoder, so maybe it's just a sentimental favorite.
