I am looking for the contact info/pricing for the fantasy artist that www.ige.com uses. It is very high quality art work that looks as if it came from Dungeons & Dragons or Lord of the Rings. I would like to use the art on my site so I would like details on how I can purchase or license it. | |

hi deklar, Lovely question! I love fantasy art, and I knew i had seen this artwork before, though i was not sure of the artist's name. I believe the artist you are interested in is "Rodney Matthews". The picture next to "NEWS" is called "Sanctuary" and Rodney Matthews is the artist. I have browsed some of the other pages on this site and can confirm that there are other pictures also by Rodney Matthews. You can see this picture (Sanctuary), and rest of his artwork on his website : http://www.rodneymatthews.com/posters.htm On his "contact" page, you will find relevant contact details. It reads as follows: --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Contact (For business contact only). For enquiries regarding film, animation, computer game conceptual design and intellectual property rights, contact: Doug King (USA) e-mail: doug.king@rodneymatthews.com For all other enquiries including merchandise licensing and commissioning of artwork, contact: Bob Moon (UK) e-mail: bob.moon@rodneymatthews.com http://www.rodneymatthews.com/contact.htm --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I believe the picture of "Stonehenge", and the woman in the left corner may have been done by another artist, but I am confident that Rodney Matthews is the artist you are interested in. If you would also like me to indentify the other pieces, please request clarification, and I will look into it for you. Thank you for question.

Hello deklar, I spoke to someone who works on the site ? this is what they said: "I believe our art has been taken from various copyrighted fantasy artists of different origins, including novels and such. None of it is original IGE art... ?I have noticed one or two from the Dragonlance saga. I can't seem to remember the artist though. I dont think there was really any method to choosing it, just browsing the net and such." Well, I found this book on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0786911816/104-9831088-3274358?vi=glance It's called "The Art of the Dragonlance Saga" and a customer there who has bought the book comments: "For Dragonlance afficionados, or those who appreciated classic art by Easley, Caldwell, Parkinson, Elmore, and more, this is the ideal collection." The person I chatted to from the IGE site also mentioned Larry Elmore - so he is a fair bet. You might find useful information by searching on these artists' names with Google image search. For example: http://images.google.com/images?q=artwork+elmore http://images.google.com/images?q=dragon+easley http://images.google.com/images?q=fantasy+caldwell ..you get the idea. So you see, since the art comes from lots of artists, it would be hard to answer your question fairly. Perhaps if you have a specific image or two in mind you could say which ones and we can have a go at tracking down contact information for the copywrite holder(s). Hope this helps! |
