Fantasy(??) illustrator
May 17, 2016 6:08 AM Subscribe
I'm looking for a new of an illustrator who is reminiscent of landscape shots on this page (under "Want a quick...", particularly shots 3 and 5). I do strongly remember the artist producing a landscape that involved heavy silhouetting, rolling hills (or a bridge?), and bright, purple-blue-green colours. Who might this classic (pre-Internet) illustrator be?
For some reason my brain associates him or her with the '50s-'70s, possibly Scandinavian, possibly somehow connected to Tolkien. All of those details may be wrong.
Googling got me nothing.

And cross referencing Maxfield Parrish and Tolkien I got the Hildebrant brothers, which seem closer to the non-art-related details and with a similar style.

Roger Dean? It would be hard to get more "60's and 70's fantasy landscape" than him - he did album covers for Yes.
