You can find the ArtStation page for Bee right here, and more of Rafael's work here.

If Hearthstone Art interests you, pick yourself up a copy of The Art of Hearthstone, you can do so over on Amazon for $31 USD. Blizzard is also still selling limited editions of the Art of Hearthstone for $100 USD in the US Gear Store. I can't imagine they'll last for much longer.
You can also pick up the Hearthstone Pop-Up Book for $32 which even includes a pre-nerf Mana Wyrm.

That video is really interesting - too bad I have zero creative talent so amazed by people that do :)
Plus countdown timers are here!!!!! So will be glued to front page in the coming days :) :)
Very cool to see the work which goes into card art - I would love to see how they include the additional steps for golden animations as well!
I think the Hearthstone team does the animations so the artists don't have those to post. At least I'd imagine it's like that.
What's different about the limited edition one? Also, I have these on my amazon wish list for my next birthday. Great way to preserve and enjoy the art if the game ever dies, or, like right now, some art got changed.
Limited edition is numbered and signed by several members of the art team. It also is leatherbound and comes in a special case that opens up like the collection manager. Oh, and it comes with a couple of special prints!
I've got #80 \o/

I really like that cartoon-ish card art style. Many people said it bothers them but for me it's just fitting and pleasant for eye.
Thats exactly what I think. Also it is a big advantage since it looks up to date longer than realistic look!
