Locus Mortis
Ink/Colored Pencil
Artist Statement
This is a take on a mythical castle of the lord of the dead, cast in a greenish pallor, eerily glowing from within. Its green color perhaps representing the green of lichen or fungus growing on dead trees.
I have always been fascinated by linear perspective in art and architecture, while at the same time I have also been inspired by the beauty and patterns of nature. My work incorporates both of these themes. The drawings utilize stark linear perspective to create images with science fiction and fantasy themes and surreal landscapes, with focus on depth of field and complex detail to draw the viewer into them. Some of my drawings blend the natural world with futuristic sci-fi images, and some of them features surrealistic takes on familiar landscapes.
