Artist Spotlight: Skottie Young

I am most familiar with artist Skottie Young because of his comic book covers for Marvel and for his work on the Wizard of Oz comic books (also published through Marvel). Skottie has an interesting cartooning style that is at times whimsical and at times quite disturbing. There is really something frightening about horror situations depicted in a cartoony style. It’s like a Killer Clown showing up in the middle of a Barney movie or something (that might actually be interesting, come to think of it).

Enough of my thoughts – check out some selected works of Skottie Young. All images below are used from his DeviantArt profile.
