Most of these get links to sites with multiple drawings. because honestly, one pic doesn't really give you that great of a scope. Except Mignola of course, I should hope we all know what his stuff looks like, haha.
Tealin Raintree - She gets number one, because I found her during my formative artistic stage, in grade 7 or so (thank you, Harry Potter), and she's stuck with me. A lot of my influences were found more or less through her - she is certainly credited with making me want to read Discworld books, and lord only knows what that's done for my cynicism.
Paul Kidby - The Discworld's current illustrator extrordinare. Google him for more stuff - he's so varied, but there isn't a single webpage with a collection of his stuff on it, although he hase a couple rather smashing art books.
Mike Mignola - Interestingly, this was initially indirect - before I knew who he was, I was being unconsiously influenced by people who had been influenced by Mignola. Too many to list.
Peter de Sève - His drawings have such personality. C: He does a lot of concept art for Disney movies, and he also does a lot of New York Times covers.
Garrett Hanna - Probably the most obscure person on this list, Mr Hanna just happened to be in fourth year of my program last year, when I was in first year and trying to learn how to colour better.
