I absolutely love concept art and matte paintings, and i do constantly practise these genres working on landscapes of all kinds. Most of these speed paintings you never see here since i never upload them feeling they are not ready. However I thought to share a couple of them so you can see what i work on when I'm not in here

Since we haven't found other worlds with living creatures on yet, i make them up in my mind! I love trying to paint down what i imagine they could look like and here is one example.
This is a planet I named Urunda, a quite hot and humid place with the air mainly consisting of hydrogen sulfide this is for us on planet Earth a quite inhospitable (and smelly)place. But this planet is teaming with and abundance of life, both plants and animals.
the art style that i assume is especially devoted to concept art just happens to look so amazing. i enjoy being able to see patches of roughness where the artist just didnt care. makes me happy.
