Our second artist today is Mr. Joe Madureira. Madureira's art spawned many a clone trying to latch on to the Anime trend in styles. It's dynamic and beautiful at the same time. He manages to blend western and eastern influences seamlessly in a way few can match. At the same time, he manages to create some of the most innovative character designs imaginable. Unfortunately, the massive amount of detail and his love for side projects slows his productivity. Magazine covers, video game design, and even some work in advertisement has steered his career towards mainstream, but has kept him too busy to complete anything consistent. Maybe some day he'll return to a more stable project.
