>What is the one image that truly inspired you to start drawing "for real", something that woke you up.
Pic related. Was browsing /ic/ a while back and there was an Art Nouveau thread involving Kay Nielsen. That's what really flicked the switch and made me go "time to actually learn this shit."
Another artist I found shorty after that gave me a similar effect was John Bauer. Specific works like Princess Tuvstarr gazing down into the dark waters of the forest tarn and Look at my sons! You won't find more beautiful trolls on this side of the moon.
I've always like a those old airbrushed pictures from the 70s/80s like from Bat Out of Hell, Journey, Boston, Rhapsody and those gynoids by Hajime Sorayama.
