Brooklyn-based J.T. Yost has a unique, cartoonish painterly style that is best captured in his Peculiar Pet Portraits. He started in Georgia but eventually made his way to NYC. These paintings are watercolor, but he also works in oil and silkscreen.
He also has created a children's character, Edward the Friendly Beast, who stars in a short series about a young boy with a hearing impediment.
Another favorite is one of his logos/advertisements: Direct from Hollywood Cemetery. It is reminiscent of Tim Burton's eerie stripes and characters.
