He doesn't get much love around here but his work is incredible.

Same here but I always will be drawn to his work and don't see myself ever getting tired of it. I do think he has a decent amount of people who at least appeciate his work on here. The problem is not enough of his work is flippable for the majority of eb to get a second look sadly.inkedup wrote:My tastes have changed quite a bit since I started collecting 5-6 years ago but Craola's work never gets old to me. Strange that nobody really cares about his stuff on this forum.

Is there anyone better at what he does than Craola? When I say this I'm talking in terms of an artist who does character/narrative based illustrations. I know there are plenty of other folks who are great but can anyone else really touch him? He seems to be crushing at the highest of levels both from an imaginative and technical standpoint. Which other artists would at least be in the conversation?
I got this baby up for sale. Normally I would not post in this thread with a piece for sale but this is the thing. I put it up at No Reserve and it cost more then 15k. So I feel given this is a great opportunity for a fan to get one of his masterpieces for a lot less then the galleries charge. This is the piece and its huge!
and here is the link to my auction...

Just recently saw Craola's stuff for the first time. I like it a lot. I'm glad this thread exists.
New painting he did for Crime on Canvas coming up in Las Vegas called "Bags and Friends"
He is also wanting feedback to which painting people would like to see turned into a print. You can email here contact@imscared.com to pick.
I picked Apex Predator and all of the work can be viewed here for the available choices...
