Hi everyone! Really in love with idea on this one - and I hope you can feel that.
What started off as a simple idea with one tower somehow turned into designing a garden view with several small structures. Always loved small places like this, probably because most times they have a si...

Hey everyone! I recently stumbled upon the concept of dove houses, and realized how much they fit into the world of Argenta.
Having one of these in the corner of gardens sounds so cool somehow, I can imagine rich merchants having them at their mansions.
The concept of mail and m...

Hi everyone! Here is the finished piece! I was a bit slower than usual because I had some commissions to take care of, but here we are!
Felt the need to draw a proper sanctuary again, a place to mentally get some rest. 🏡

Hi everyone!
I felt like remaking this old piece you see as the second picture and that I made a while ago - but thinking about how to make it better.
I also thought I'd describe some of the things in the sketch, which is what I usually do with sketches for commissions. Because ...

The sky temples of Amenti were built to be as close as possible to the god of wind. The black stone was a gift from a king in the North, and has been a symbol of balance since then.
I realize this piece isn't extraordinary in any way, but there is beauty in simplicity.
I've also been ...

Hi everyone!
I wanted to return to some Sky Cities. Not too sure about the flora there though, I might change it to something of a warmer climate.
The high stone will have tourmaline traits, and I currently worry about the lighting. I guess I should plan this ahead with scenes that co...

Always enjoyed these little scenes so much when playing games, yet never dared to do one. It felt like it was going to turn out really bad at first, but then gradually it improved more and more, and I had more and more fun. Sometimes it really pays off to stick with something like this. Putt...

Hi!
The locals here are talking about these ritual stones on top of a hill near the village as a place of power, and that the water has the might to bring great fortune or despair to you if you drink it.
What makes this place special though is not that it inherently possesses ...
Hi everyone! This will be one of those drawings that reveals the kind of person that looks at it.
Some people just look at this and shrug it off as some ritual stones, others will be intrigued and start imagining what their purpose is. This attitude is like a silver line in each of our life...

Here it is! The mood and weather was actually so hard to do, and I'm not entirely content with the piece when looking at it - I learned some small things about technique. I feel like the pixels themselves have started to get more clean as I'm putting more attention to this. That means less gradie...

Well hello there! Read about the Gondolin, the hidden city of the elves in the first age of middleearth, and felt inspired to do a city with ivory white houses and walls myself. The weather will be a challenge - I thought about having clouds to emphasize the free skies at first, but they'll proba...

I wanted to tap into more symbolism, so here we are. Not too sure about the setting, but I like the vibe it gives off. I know it's a bit different to what I usually do, but it opened the door to create more magical scenes. These don't always have to be so mystical, they will probably be more whim...

Hi everyone! So here we are, a new piece that will go into the realm of symbolism. I'm really interested in drawing the darkness, as I don't have too much experience with this. Also, the two stones one the pillars will probably be a blast, they will be inspired by the two ancient stones "Urim and...

Hi!
Well, here we are - back in the comfort zone, and it has to be done from time to time. Always loved these houses, and I wanted to get in that cozy feeling with the lighting situation. The trees must sound so nice when the wind rises. I hope you like it!
Next up, I'd like to tap into ...

Hi everyone!
Thank you so much for your support!
While the last two pieces we're cool to do and each of them a challenge, I wanted to return to my path again with this one - so naturally you'll be seeing lots of green again. So far I plan on making the roof blueish, the walls wh...

This is a scene in one of the many South Argentian temples of learning, where wisdom is shared by the elders, and sometimes actually heard by the younger generations.
The natural caves in these mountains have been expanded and used for hundreds of years, as the stone of this mountain holds ...

Hi! Coming to you with a new sketch! A completely different setting this time, I'll make the walls out of sandstone or something similar. The stone levitating in the middle of the room is an actual reference to a piece of an iron meteorite that I possess, it still sometimes blows my mind to imagi...

Hi everyone! Finished the diorama, and I'm kind of torn between liking the diorama itself, but not really loving the scene itself. Loved the idea of drawing these slices though - and I took the chance to draw a new kind of tree.
I hope you like it!
Take care.

Dioramas have always fascinated me since I was a child.
There is something so cool about imagining all the hidden small worlds that the eye does not see. I plan to make lots of little details, with the Menhir and the lantern being the part that is human made to give it a b...

Really proud of this one! We recently watched "Tales from Earthsea" from Ghibli Studios again, and I loved the little farm in the movie so much that I immediately had to draw one myself!

Here it is! 500 by 500 pixels, and around 25 hours of work. Don't know if I'm going to ever do that again. Ah who am I kidding, I'll fall for the trap again and again.
And even though next time I'd like to make it less complex from a technical standpoint, I feel pleased with its composition...
