S. Petersen’s Field Guide to Lovecraftian Horrors:
I love Wayne Barlowe's work so much, it is detailed, fantastical, organic, and sometimes terrifying. I spent a long time attempting to find and buy my rare copy of Wayne Barlowe's Inferno, and it was worth it. If you see it, buy it! I copied down the description from my copy of 'Barlowe's Inferno':
>The perimeters of Hell are salients to be watched over, borders of constant dispute with the Enemy From Above. They are a region of endless ebb and flow as characterized by the city-large blocks of buildings that float without direction over the smouldering landscape. Because of its sense or remove from the heart of Dis, I decided that extraordinary warning systems needed to exist to alert the armies of Darkness. These Watchtowers with their giant, bone-lidded orbs seem perfect for the job. Encrusted with barracks and other military buildings, appropriate to a hostile frontier, the archiorganic towers are the demons' first line of defense. Surmounting them are gaping jaws attached to long tubular necks that can swiftly extend to scoop up flying prey.
>Prowling around the Watchtowers are two Sphinx-like Beasts. Barely controllable, they are seen here sharpening their claws on the Watchtowers' flanks sending buildings, debris and demons showering to the ground below.
Wayne Barlowe is well known for his realistic paintings of surreal alien (or fantastic) life. His Barlowe's Guides to extraterrestrials and to fantasy are his interpretations of specific creatures and beings from well-known science fiction and fantasy literature. His Inferno is an interpretation of the demonology contained in the Grimoire of Honorius. His Expedition is a complex look of the speculative evolution of the fictional planet Darwin IV. - wiki

Probably my all time favorite piece of art...
Which also inspired another favorite piece of art...
Star Wars version of same painting
I also enjoy pretty much every piece of art in this book...
awesome, fans of this work might like Barlowe's Inferno by Wayne Barlowe and the sequel Brushfire
For demonic creatures I'd recommend Barlowe's Inferno by Wayne Barlow (Amazon link, Wikipedia Link) although it may be a bit too expensive looking at the Amazon price.
