Tangentially Illustrious
Jul. 21st, 2009 09:11 amThere's a flap going on about the Hugo nominees, which I have little interest in (flaps is flaps is flaps is spinach), but ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
suricattus linked to an artist's take on the kvetching about the art Hugos, and lo and behold, the reason why Donato Giancola deserves a Hugo is illustrated by one of my covers: the one for The Golden Rose. It's a stunningly gorgeous cover, but I hadn't realized the Society of Illustrators agreed--and gave the art its highest award. Well deserved, and the blogger, as an artist, explains exactly why.
Sometimes, illustration really can be fine art.
