I vividly remember about 25-30 years ago, artworks by this artist adorned the walls of our dorm. Boris Vallejo (although correctly Vallejo, he’s Peruvian). I checked where he is now. First, “alive and kicking!” An American. Secondly, his work was always a collaboration with his wife, fantasy artist Julie Bell. Moreover, their entire family is the same way. He has two children from his previous marriage to artist and writer Doris Vallejo, and also two stepsons. His son, Dorian Vallejo, also draws in the fantasy genre but is currently working as a portrait artist. His stepsons, Anthony Palumbo and David Palumbo, both artists, work for fine art galleries and also as illustrators in the science fiction/fantasy genre. His daughter, Maya Vallejo, a professional photographer, apparently has not yet found any dragon models.
