Alan Gutierrez

Alan I'm a professional Sci-Fi/Fantasy artist who has been doing art for 25 years.
 
 
 
I started in 1976 drawing celebrity actresses, moving on to Sci-Fi/Fantasy subjects after 'Star Wars' in 1977. I entered Art Center College of Design in 1979, and graduated with a BFA in Illustration in 1982. I got my first pro sale in 1981 for the cover of 'Rigel' Prozine, and the first major cover sale for 'The Lagrangists' by Mack Reynolds for Tor Books in 1983. Since then, I've done about 300 covers, for Tor, Baen, Berkley/Ace, Bantam, Pocket, Analog/Asimov's Magazine, Tonka Toys, Popular Mechanics, FASA, and Steve Jackson Games. Plus interior art for Marion Zimmer Bradley's Fantasy Magazine, Aboriginal SF, Analog/Asimov's, and Sovereign Stone Press. In addition to SF/F jobs, I spend time doing Anime Fantasy Realism, both commissioned work and on my own. AFR is anime fanart is a realistic/fantasy style-not anime style art. It conforms totally with my own SF/F background. I hope to give myself more exposure to the realm of SF/F and Anime fandom here at Elfwood. I'm always available for commissions at very reasonable prices.

Mind-blowing quality!

The level of awesomeness that can only come from a creative professional!

The crispness of colour and wonderful design is beyond excellent...!

How I would love to see one of my characters done in such a rich style!

I love all of ur art!!! Its kickasstic!!! Just a tiny comment tho, i dont think you capture as much emotion and fantasical quality in digital media as when you paint. But, the paintings are beautiful. I love what you have done. Keep up the good work. *worships artist*

WOW!!! I know you have gotten that a lot but OMG you so deserve it.... How much do Commissions cost?? I am not nearly as fantastic as you are when it comes to painting... well I actually suck when it is idea's from my own head... if I am doing foe someone else I like it... but I just can't make anything for me that I like and there is a idea that I haven't been able to work out just right and I was wondering if I could talk to you about maybe getting it put down into canvas

i was forwarded onto your gallery as i was told a list of names to visit by other equally awed members (I’m still fairly new to the whole elfwood thing..) to say im impressed is an understatement. I see here a selection of classical Sci-fi and fantacy work spanning a good decade, in a medium i still have yet to master.. Colour.
Viewing your work makes me want to crack open my archive of old fantacy and space books.. im sure ive seen your style of work somewhere....
Full respect to your level of professionalism and skills - Ill definately be visiting your website!
