While probably not well-known, Stephanie Pui-Mun's art is still breathtaking and imaginative. Her style reminds me somewhat of Yoshitaka Amano's, mostly from the washy colors and expressive linework. Her subject matter is fantasy and she appears to reference myths and fairy tales.
I love her surreal environments. They are suggestive and dream-like, not really following the realistic use of perspective, but having a life of their own. Although, it looks like she must use a lot of source material.
I enjoy how she pieces different narratives together into a cohesive whole. The above painting looks like it could have been at least three separate paintings. I think it's beautiful that she has a nice balance of muted and saturated colors.
