next question please.

I grew up playing mtg and was mesmerized by art from Chippy and John Avon

Chippy

John Avon

Everything from the Rider-Waite-Smith tarot deck.

The artist was a famously unmarried woman, and that tickles me pink

that Moltres though, wow!

this full art mountain from Magic: The Gathering

I'm already a HUGE fan of the art in Streets of New Capenna but I absolutely adore this one mountain in particular, I just think it's gorgeous

Shoutout to the close second of the alt art for Disciplined Duelist from the same set:

Not so much an art as entire card but probably the old Uncle Istvan from MtG

Also a lot of characters from Here to Slay

Rider-Waite's 7 of swords

It means "bold plan, risk, or a plan that may fail." The dude has snuck into the enemy camp to steal their swords There are 2 swords left behind so if they catch him he'll be outnumbered and fucked but if he gets away the enemy will be to a fraction of their fighting power.

Geck from Inscryption, I don't know why, it just makes me chuckle, you have tons of more powerful and complex cards with their creepy and menacing looks... and then you have Geck, it's just Geck. No cost, no effect. There it is, Geck, and its goofy face.

Geck

All of the cards in Wingspan have amazing art but I think this one is my favorite

I really love Rebecca Guay's mtg illustrations, Bitterblossom is probably my favorite.

There's some great artist doing mtg art still, but I wish they still used more stylized stuff like this.

Part of it is nostalgia but I really loved the dragons designed by Kazuki Takahashi. They have this wonderful lanky look, kind of like the ones from Panzer Dragoon.

Really anything from Liiga Smilshkalne, loved her stuff ever since Android Netrunner.

Gun to my head, probably Data Raven. Idk if I can find the card without a big FFG watermark so here's the art on its own:

From FFG's Android Netrunner

this flareon without question

though this one is also cool

I'm a huge fan of these pixel lands, I really wish proxied lands were legal in all formats because I want these for all of my lands.

A more simple one, but I love rashmi's original card. I'm a sucker for UG card art.

In pokemon I'm in love with Yuka Morii's art, the little clay dolls in real life backdrops are so charming. I'm so happy whenever I see her cards

Most of the Board wipes have beautiful art.

I love progenitus for the scope, seeing this leviathan walking across the world.

Too bad seb mckinnon is cringe cause I fw his art

i chuckle when i draw the biden joker

On Serra's Wings from MTG: Dominaria

i really like the art of the board game ascension, illustrated by eric sabee. it has a really cool visual style that i always liked, i especially like the monsters

theres also another board game series illustrated by another person, élise plessis, that i really like. its has this dreamlike quality thats very fitting for a board game series about the world of dreams

I keep this card around on my desk because I love it. Look at that doofy face ❤️

One of my favorites is from an old 1995 TCG called "Heresy: Kingdom Come", and the card is "Michael: Chief of Archangels":

The art is by Brom, and here is better quality version of the art:

(This TCG was good for art as they were much taller than normal cards, about the size of tarot cards. This hurt them with players though since I card sleeves would fit them and made shuffling harder.)

While not all the art was great on the cards, the back image was great:
