I don't think it's too much
to say that Brom could be the most revolutionary fantasy artist since Boris
himself. Nearly everything about his work is original, from the chaotic
nature of his style to the "dark" quality of his subjects. But foremost
in Brom's unique aspects is his use of color. His sense of control, I think,
is greater than any other fantasy artist. His colors seem to flatten creating
a dramatic sense of line between objects, and he manages to push the element
of contrast even further by constantly mixing light and dark.

The sun for Brom's people
must indeed be dim, almost no one in his paintings has a decent tan.
Help fight the spread of
skin cancer, buy the artist's book "Darkwerks" as soon as possible.
