I instantly think of Ocampo, although arguably there's more Escher here. Regardless, lovely and I am very grateful to see these!

The upper half was the cover of "Masters of Deception", published in 2007, so no worries

I'd prefer a world w/o cars... Maybe an elven king on a giant moose would match better for me. But that is just my very personal taste.

They're very clever paintings as well as being beautiful. reminds me of Escher in a way.

Still, it has the same draw to me. His gallery is just gorgeous.

Rob died in 2017, and these are on his gallery website, so thankfully not the Exploitation Machines

Good ways to tell (besides trying to prove provenance*, like above) include looking for "logic" in the piece--are things like architectural details sustained, is the lighting continuous, would a human make this choice?
