Sites like Flickr, Tumblr and DeviantArt, among others, bombard us with a ceaseless supply of artwork by professionals and fans that is variously excellent, clever, funny, innovative and numerous degrees of awesome.

We've made a habit of spotlighting particular artists and/or specific bodies of work, but there's just so much great work to see that we've initiated Best Art Ever (This Week), a weekly depository for just some of the virtually countless pieces of especially compelling artwork.

Some of it's new, some of it's old, some of it's created by working professionals, some of it's created by talented fans, and some of it's endearingly stupid. And all of it's awesome.

Best Movie Art Ever (This Week): Tyler Stout's Mondo Poster Gallery

This week on Best Movie Art Ever (This Week) we're celebrating the work of prolific print illustrator Tyler Stout!

Tyler Stout is a Washington-based artist whose work you've probably seen if you've spent any time in Austin. The famously film-loving Texas city is a big fan of Stout's lavishly illustrated posters, most of which are commissioned by Mondo for special engagements at the Alamo Drafthouse Cinema chain. Stout's work is a clever blend of photo-realistic comic book-style illustration and dirty street art, an approach that casts some of our favorite film characters in a new light that's both aesthetically fascinating and just plain cool.
Unfortunately, nearly all of Stout's limited edition poster work is sold out or only available on the second-hand market. But the Internet is a wonderful place, and we've put together a gallery of all the Tyler Stout film posters we could find. For more of his work, be sure to visit the Stout's official website as well as Mondo for more unique movie art.

Best Movie Art Ever (This Week): The Wild Cinema of Dan Hipp

This week on Best Art Ever (This Week) we're celebrating the work of the ultra cool illustrator Dan Hipp!

Dan Hipp is one of comics' more idiosyncratic creators. His style is a unique, simultaneous blend of cartoony cuteness with hyper-colored violence and is heavy with sophisticated design elements. Hipp seems compelled to create new artwork all the time, often in the form of cartoons based on famous moments from films and television series, seemingly for no other reason than because they're awesome. He keeps a record of this beautiful if slightly deranged work at his blog, where you can also purchase the original artwork of some pieces.

Fans of Cartoon Network's 'Ben 10' will want to check out Hipp's work in the 'Ben 10: Alien Force - Doom Dimension' graphic novels, but for pure, intravenous Hipp, make sure to pick up his epic revenge opus 'GYAKUSHU!' and the rock 'n roll action piece, 'The Amazing Joy Buzzards.'
