Before the computing era, ILM was the master of oil matte painting, making audiences believe that some of the sets in the original Star Wars and Indiana Jones trilogy were real when they weren’t. They were the work of geniuses like Chris Evans, Michael Pangrazio, Frank Ordaz, Harrison Ellenshaw and Ralph McQuarrie ! Forever thank you, to their handmade art and the work of their colleagues, that made us dream of impossible worlds and fantastic places across Earth and the Universe.

There are more background paintings on this article, featuring comments by the masters/artists themselves ! 

Some of the following pieces were made by other artists 2:

Fallen Angels 1995 

You rub elbows with a lot of people everyday. Some strangers might become your friends or even confidants. So I never turned my back on the chance to rub elbows, sometimes I rub until I bleed. No big deal, as long as I’m happy. Last night I ran into that woman again. I knew very well we’d never be friends or confidents, we’d had too many chances, we had rubbed elbows till our clothes tore, but still no sparks.

Maybe it was the weather, but that evening I felt a spark
