Fantasy Art = Future?

Hey guys,

If you'll let me I'd like to abuse this blog for a moment and open up a topic for discussion. One that I think has extra relevance here in this little fuk/shit community we are building. It started when a buddy of mine and I were trolling drawn.ca and found this video.....

This one time... from nelson boles on Vimeo.

Then we got to talking about fantasy art, and how we were sick of seeing 'Star Wars' and 'Lord of The Rings' rip offs over and over and over again. IS THERE NO OTHER WAY TO INTERPRET A UNIVERSE THAT IS FANTASTIC. I feel like there is an accepted and regular way to draw a 'dragon' or an 'orc'....it bothers me. What really impressed us about the video was that it felt more foreign and alien than any art with an official fantasy label attached to it. I believe that the subtly of the absurd really makes the world of "this one time..." more real and believable....AND MORE FANTASTIC. I don't need to see all the glowly rim lights and friggin' armor plates to know I'm looking into a different world. (although I myself am guilty of using them)

The other point that I want to bring up, is that I think this kind of art is the direction fantasy art is going, and is already occurring in many places. I would site examples like Miyazaki, and House of Cool, Gobelins animation....and even you guys. I think that what is happening there is intriguing and fresh. So keep it up!!!

Does that make sense to anyone else? I'd love to hear if anybody has thoughts on this subject?

thanks for your time :)

I think the title is rather self explanatory?

Massive Art Update

It's been quite a while since I've updated my blog with sketches. So, what that usually means is that 'a lot' of work has piled up over the past 3-4 months. I have spent this entire week scanning and adjusting the sketches. Sometimes it feels like I'm spending more time scanning than drawing :P
There's a combination of 3 different sketchbooks below, experimenting with various styles and methods. The box below was a birthday gift I hand-made for my mom.

hope you guys like it.

enjoy
