Amazing artwork..

Artgerm aka Stanley Lau

Born and bred in Hong Kong, the multifaceted Stanley wears different hats as an illustrator, designer, concept artist, creative director and co-founder of Imaginary Friends Studios — a world acclaimed digital art studio that produces high quality artworks for the likes of Capcom, DC Comics, Square Enix and other giants in the entertainment and gaming industry. Formally trained in graphic design and advertising, Stanley’s art is imbued with a strong sense of aesthetics and visual fluidity. It is a perfect blend of eastern and western art styles. Better known by his handle Artgerm, Stanley’s art continues to infect and inspire new generations of artists and his ever-growing fan base around the world. Recently, Stanley was contracted by Capcom to provide new character artwork for the upcoming releases of Street Fighter III Third Strike Online Edition.

I strongly believe that this is the most inspirational deviation that I ever submitted. So print it out and hang it on your wall and scream “I can do it too!”

The above one I remembered having on my phone in 2007 and had no clue who the artist was. Once again it’s back on my phone 🙂 Order restored.
