Art by enersto1956

[foreverlurk]

I've stumbled upon a SW artist I somehow didn't know existed and I really like his style. Does anyone knows if "enersto1956" might be on this board under another name? His artworks are signed Ernie (Enersto?) Centofanti. Is he known in the community and I've just been living under a rock? Is he still active? I have a vague feeling I might have seen some of his work before, but I can't remember exactly.

For those that don't know him, here's a sample of his work:



Interestingly enough, he also published a SW novel about 10 years ago, so I think he might be lurking around this board or other size community websites :

I'd be very interested in finding more of his works. Thanks!

Correct.

Mr Pencil (etc) was in evidence even back then.

Ahhhh, so THAT'S why his work seemed familiar. I wasn't imagining things... the pose, the composition, of course. I've always loved his collages but somehow never knew he did pastel. Awesome, thanks!
