Problem is that golden age of illustration doesn't have Loomis face. Hell, he isn't mentioned anywhere, not for pin ups, magazine covers or books. Golden age of illustration has a face of Edmund Dulac, Leyendecker, Oakley, Wyeth...Loomis isn't there among those people. He is nobody.

>huston recommends Loomis

IF he does (I don't remember him talking about Loomis, only that he got into art because of comics and that he ) it's probably the same case as with every older artist - there just wasn't much back then. Older American artists usually only had access to Bridgman, Loomis and then...erm, nearly nothing? Huston btw was learning under the Hogarth and picked from him, so that's that.


Btw, have more Erik Olson's art.
