Share a photo in the comments if you can find it! Also, what do yuu like about the art? Do you run it in any of the decks/games you play?
This is mine for now. It's Trapinch from the Pokemon tcg by Asako Ito. I don't play, but there's a stack of free singles that people leave in a box at a bg place I go to, ao I took one and keep it in my wallet as a good luck charm (and charm it does, look at rhe overaized head and cute knitted body! A single crooked thread for a mouth and a shining star iris completes the baby)
Also while I was browsing, I saw this sick Galarian Moltress by Shinji Kanda
Also specifically the GBC game(s) version of this card art.

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

John Avon lands are so distinct. You see that dramatic lighting on a basic land and you just know it's him.
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:
Show
I have several of these mountains in my Laelia deck, they're gorgeous
lmao i got like 50 of these mountains in various decks. I would replace every basic mountain in all my decks with it
Is that like, futurism, the style in the Mountain? Full art cards are
each set in Magic the Gathering has its own like... theme/style. Streets of New Capenna, my favorite, is full in on the art deco. There's some other beautiful cards in that set but that Mountain is something else
Cool! Each set having a setting/art direction definitely makes for memorable cards
Everything from the Rider-Waite-Smith tarot deck.
The artist was a famously unmarried woman, and that tickles me pink
that Moltres though, wow!
Oh yeah it's the most classic tarot deck out there. I quite like the Lost Hollow one and Kitten Tarot
Not so much an art as entire card but probably the old Uncle Istvan from MtG
Show
Also a lot of characters from Here to Slay
If they catch him though, he'll have five swords which is two more than Zoro three-sword style from
so he'll be okay
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.

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

I really love Rebecca Guay's mtg illustrations, Bitterblossom is probably my favorite.
Show
There's some great artist doing mtg art still, but I wish they still used more stylized stuff like this.
I'm slowly collecting all of the mtg cards she's ever illustrated. Except for the secret lair set she had. Not sure what that was all about
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.

Inside Job was one of my fave cards when I played netrunner. The look of chaotic excitement on the hacker's face is fun (also they're on the toilet lmaoo)
Modern Netrunner's art isn't as good as the FFG days but it's 200% more based
Show
this flareon without question
Show
though this one is also cool
Show
Top one is unreal cute! It has little cakes in the reflections in its eyes
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.
Show
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
Show

I love the clay art too, I'm sure it's partially the inspiration for the (computer generated) claymation netflix show
