Ah, so some classical/romantic art. I could dig that.
Oh yes! I love my classical/romantic-era art! Perhaps even as far as Victorian into "Gilded Age" art. (Modern art styles and movements to my knowledge doesn't really have a place in D&D... unless you count D20 Modern and Alternity)
And there we must part ways. To me, any "X art style has no place in DnD" statements default to false, and must be proven true with extraordinary evidence.
More sex and gender equality and racial equality shouldn't even be an argument--it should simply be an assumption for any RPG that wants to stay relevant in the 21st century.
I could say anything in D&D is silly though, because it's a silly game and we are silly people.

Very well. It's all in the eye of the beholder. Or perhaps the beholder itself!

I want to see pen & ink again. There is something to be said for a few pages of subdued black and white work in a sea of flashy digital art.

I'm working on the conceptual stuff for a gaming system right now, and am considering having a large portion of the art be in sketch form, much like Da Vinci's sketches. Simple pencil stuff, and actually have the artists just sketch a ton of stuff along certain themes and ideas, and grab up what pops.

Da Vincian sketch style! I would love to see more of this kind of art style. Especially in a planar book (It would be a nice homage, after all)

I've been doing sketches of my own recently, surprising myself. I don't suck as much at drawing as I would have expected.
Did a scene of a giant redwood sized tree, with a gnome house built into the root structure, with a gnome in a rocking chair in front of the door, smoking a pipe, and my mind was suddenly afire with possibilities. It made me want to build worlds and characters and throw some dice.
