Featured Artist: Ursula Vernon
I first ran into Ursala Vernon’s work through the appearance of a biting pear when I joined a new tabletop RPG group. The creature attacked one of the longtime players, and everybody started cracking up. I, of course, didn’t get the joke… until somebody pointed me at her DA page. And I fell in love.
She does what she calls Gearworld, a rich and bizarre land full of amazing sites, and half-glimpsed history.
I’ve showcased some of my favorites here. They’re not big enough to be wallpapers, but she does have some available for print on DA. Check her out; she’s phenominal.
Note that I didn’t hotlink to her images, though you can get a slightly bigger one by clicking on the thumbnails here. For the full image/print, check out her DA gallery.
PS: also read Digger, her webcomic. Just sayin’.

She’s also on LJ as UrsulaV. Wonderful lady.
Her work demonstrates a truly bizarre sense of humor coupled with total competence. She really manages to make even the most bizarre subjects seem accessible.
