one of my all-time favorite artists (if not my absolute favorite) is James Jean.  i just received this week (finally) his book Process Recess 2.  it is stunning.  Jean does a lot of comic book cover work for fables and many other publications…

…look familiar?  but he also does a lot of ad work for places from Target to Playboy to Men’s Health and it all has one thing in common…it’s all insanely beautiful.  there is something somehow haunting and creepy yet beautifully rendered about everything Jean does.  i cannot recommend his work or his book enough.  go here to read more about Process Recess and to buy one now!  below are some other favorite images of mine by Jean…
