more art from Don Maitz
from First Maitz, Ursus Imprints, 1988
Taking my copy of First Maitz off of the shelf and looking through it again, I remain convinced that Maitz was, and is, one of the greatest illustrators of his time. He has impressive technical skills, being adept at rendering landscapes, buildings, people, and imaginary creatures. He is skilled in his use of color. And he has the ability of all great illustrators to capture the theme of a book or magazine and effectively communicate it to the onlooker.
You still can find copies of First Maitz available for sale in good condition, for under $20. If you like fantasy and science fiction art, then I recommend getting a copy of the book sooner, rather than later, and it's long out of print and inevitably will become more dear as time goes on.
