There's a whole lotta artistic talent in the fandom. But, we tend to stick with looking at art from the big names (like Blotch, Adam Wan/Zaush, and DarkNatasha). So, I thought it'd be good to start a thread promoting smaller players in the scene that haven't had the publicity that those larger players do have. I'll start with:
Locally, I love Temrin's work. I'm sure that most of us know who she is at this point. :)
Temrin's FA (http://www.furaffinity.net/user/temrin)
Outside of Vancouver, some artists that have done pieces for me/I admire:
ThayRustback (FA) (http://www.furaffinity.net/user/thayrustback/) who did this amazing little gem of a piece (http://www.furaffinity.net/view/7313590) for me last night.
Crashheart (FA) (http://www.furaffinity.net/user/crashheart) who does some amazing environmental concept art (http://www.furaffinity.net/view/7256133/), as well as some cool inked stuff (http://www.furaffinity.net/view/6234566/) for the Oregon camping con (CFT).
Let's get this ball rolling, shall we? :D
Pffft Temrin.
Speaking of, she was recently pimping Raiira
http://www.furaffinity.net/user/raiira (http://www.furaffinity.net/user/raiira)
whom has stupidly undercut her own prices, and is open for commissions.
You flatter me Acco! *hides face*
OH! YES! Pimp Raiira! :3
Wow, Temrin's works are very impressive. I love the detail, expression and lines, it's breathtaking. I hope to reach the same level in my own art work one day; I just started drawing three days ago after a 12 year hiatus so I have to do a lot of catching up. Hmmm, that gives me an idea . . .

Asdfjadkhfdk @w@ Temtem ilu ♥♥♥♥
and relevant, but Im in some real need for commissions, so if there's interest 8D;;;;;
I watch a lot a lot of artists, but these are some that are relatively new faces in the anthro-art scene and are really fantastic, but underappreciated!
Funsrelax (http://www.furaffinity.net/user/funsrelax/) - She's not that up-and-coming but has a really unique way of drawing things
Ryan Wardlow (http://www.furaffinity.net/user/ryanwardlow/) This guy's fairly new to the fandom but shiiiit his work is astounding. It's already hard to get a commission from him!
Ben-ben (http://www.furaffinity.net/user/ben-ben/) I've talked with this guy a few times, he is very nice and eager to improve. He's well on his way, really nice work!
Grind (http://www.furaffinity.net/user/grind/) Sweet style
Hoot (http://www.furaffinity.net/user/hoot/)
Alex Henderson (http://www.furaffinity.net/user/alexanderhenderson/)
*huggles Mysti* Huhu. ilu2 dear :3
Oh! Good list Weremagnus! -watches some-!
Another awesome local is Annubrius (http://www.furaffinity.net/user/annubrius/)
Oh yush! Annu is awesome! I dont know how i forgot to put her name down! I was so sure i had! D:
Okay, so I may not be a super well known artist with a big name in the furry fandom but I am an artist, and I've been on hiatus for a few reasons, but I will be back, and I will get there soon enough~.... I hope.......... :C
................... but yeah... *cough* just thought I'd throw that out there......... *sniffle*forever alone* ;^;
Dont be shy hunny! ^0^ Your artwork was so cute :3
I cant wait to see more!
Rien'Karrot (http://www.furaffinity.net/user/rienkarrot/) - Great sketch/linework. :D
Already mentioned Crashheart, but - he recently completed this (http://www.furaffinity.net/view/7448197/) piece, and is doing similar commissions for $50... which is a bargain, really.
*puts hand up* i is does arts too X3 not the best but i try and always open for improvement
Ceowolf (http://www.furaffinity.net/user/ceowolf/) - Great sketch/linework. :D
I'm going to shamelessly pimp out my own art here. Especially seeming how I am an artist who is working at improving his own work. My Avatar was not done by me, but you can totally find all my cool new art here : http://www.furaffinity.net/user/fazar/ (http://www.furaffinity.net/user/fazar/)
Yeah! Fazars art is awesome! :D
-go look and fave!-
Heres a few more too:
Rhari (http://www.furaffinity.net/user/rhari)
StarWonder (http://www.furaffinity.net/user/starwonder)
[urlhttp://www.furaffinity.net/user/destry/]Destry[/url]
Another one that pat recently dealt with: Saneon (http://www.furaffinity.net/user/saneon/)
Love her new technique.
Does outsiders like me count. :u
*tips his hat to Temrin* Thanks, Tem. <3
A fantastic artist in our local group here (and I don't know how nobody's mentioned her yet) is Sepiaa (http://www.furaffinity.net/user/Sepiaa). She's not only good at furry art, either; she has a very well-rounded style and she's extremely talented as a fursuit maker too!
Oh yes :3 Sepiaa is AWESOME! Her style is great and she can do anthros, fursuits, and great graphic design work too :D -envious of her skills!-
