Help me identify this fantasy/gaming artist?

This image is an AI upscale of a texture used in a game called Thief: The Darkness Project (1998). I'm trying to identify the original artist. Wikipedia identifies the game's artist as Mark Lizotte, also the name of a well-known musician, which makes search muddy.
Note: contains scantily-clad people, but no outright nudity. Gives me Vallejo and Bell vibes, but not quite. Any thoughts greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Best answer: this page identifies the ripoff8 asset as: "a Mark Lizotte original painting (apx 2'x3') that used to hang in the LGS offices." Not entirely obvious where that info comes from.
(LGS = Looking Glass Studios; also, you have the game name slightly wrong: "Thief: the Dark project".)

Mobygames also lists a number of other artists credited on this title.

Oh, I missed it because it doesn't explicitly mention the file name; the source for that is this forum comment from someone who seems to have worked for LGS (after some googling I believe that username corresponds to this person).
