Patrick and I saw Joel Hodgson (creator of MST3K) speak tonight, and he was talking about the influence that artist Roger Dean had had on him. I wasn't really familiar with Dean's work so I looked up some of it. Obviously an amazing artist and hugely influential. There's a lot of DNA from his work in a lot of the stuff being produced now that I like.
Especially liked this image, Paladin (1976):

That's awesome! I like the below as well:
