John Howe

[Dragon artist]
John Howe illustrates book covers, has done work for the Lord of The Rings films and has written a few books on how to paint fantasy animals.
He was born in Vancouver in 1957, and grew up in British Columbia. He studied art in the Ecole das Arts Decoratifs de Stratsbourg. He lives in Switzerland with his wife Fataneh (who also illustrates books) and their son Dana.
His website is here: http://www.john-howe.com/
His dragons often have long coils and fantastic fins, and often have expressive, alien faces.
Here is a video about him:
