Artist websites I like

This blog is about digital art. I'm going to start by talking about some artist websites that I like.

The first website is http://justinmaller.com/.  Justin Maller's website is visually appealing. It has pictures that are links to more of his work on specific projects. Another part of his site has some awesome wallpapers that can be downloaded. Justin Maller creates art for a number of well known companies such as Nike, Coke, Under Armour, ESPN and Verizon.

Another website I like is http://www.henningludvigsen.com/. Henning Ludvigsen's home page has a slide show of various artworks that are linked to other photos of the work that can be clicked on to view a smaller or larger view of the art. His gallery also has photos of his work that link to other photos of his work and have links to websites for the project. His work consists of 2D and 3D art, trading cards, board and computer games and a section of personal art. I like that this site loads faster than the one mentioned first. This site also contains tutorials which I think will be interesting to look into when I have the time.

The third site I like is http://sebastianschmieg.com/. I don't like the homepage as much because it is not very appealing to look at, but when the cursor is placed over the links on the page pictures appear on it. What I liked most about the projects listed was the Search by Image videos which starts with an image then shows other images that were the results of searching by the original image. When the search is reiterated using each successive image the results can be far different from the original search image. Unfortunately the live version is down for maintenance.
