In 2006, Mr. Fabian received a Lifetime Achievement Award from the World Fantasy Convention. He is, without a doubt, a living legend of fantasy art.
Kelly Freas was the acknowledged ‘King of Golden Age Sci-Fi Art’. What Frazetta was to Sword-and-Sorcery, Freas (pronounced ‘freeze’) was to Sci-Fi from about 1955 to around 1980.

Keith Taylor is one of the greatest living practitioners of Sword-and-Sorcery.
