God of Lucid Dreams

All I remember is traveling with an old train, watching out of the window. A flock of vibrant birds is flying towards the sunset creating beautiful patterns in the sky.

I had this dream a couple of years ago and since that day I was looking forward to put it on the canvas. So, I am excited to finally share it with you! I put together some unforgettable places, the feeling of flying while dreaming, those orange colours that I love and lots of beautiful fluffy clouds!😊

🌅Inspired by the art of the great RHADS and Art of Peter Mohrbacher

Necromunda Escher Ganger

The very first piece I've done for Games Workshop. It started as part of my art test back in 2019 and was later developed to be part of the House of Blades book. Huge thanks to everyone who helped in the process.

I really enjoyed painting Ollina! Such a robust, psychotic character, yet charming; she has a special place in my heart! 🖤

Mayan Electric Generator

What if the Mayans had harnessed electricity back in their time? Imagine this glorious civilization in an alternate history scenario, constructing their own power stations, generating and supplying electricity to their marvelous cities. The 3rd environment piece that concludes the fantasy series I developed, based on this concept, greatly inspired by my all time favourite animated movie: The Road to El Dorado.

Singers and dancers in an altered state of consciousness are getting excited by each deafening thunderbolt striking the High Temple. The 2nd environment piece from the fantasy series I developed, based on this concept, greatly inspired by my all time favourite animated movie: The Road to El Dorado.

The Dragon of Milos

“The waves crush on my boat’s bow as I sail against the sea currents. A layer of salt has encrusted my eyelashes and I can taste it over my cracked lips. For years I’ve traversed these seas, hoping to one day see what I yearn for in the distance. And today I’ve finally found it. The infamous landmark, the Dragon of Milos, guide of those lost at sea. People called me mad for believing such a fairy tale and I don’t blame them. What sane mind would accept that such a thing even exists? I know it’s not a ploy of my own mind this time, for I could never imagine something so majestic. The wind that filled my sails to the brim is now calm, as if nature itself wants me to admire its creation. I can only hold my breath as my tiny boat nears the island under the Dragon’s watchful eye.”

The Crown of Milos

“I can feel my hands tremble as I reach for the map. Truly, its poorly made sketch can’t live up to the true Crown of Milos towering over me. My boat drifts past and the winds howl with a voice of promise when they meet it. I just hope not to stumble across whatever natural disaster granted it these holes and rugged shape. Perhaps many aeons of wind and rain are what gave it form. It’s funny, how the culmination of my entire life is but a fleeting moment compared to the Crown’s tale. Yet, few will ever know of its beauty and live to tell the tale. Still, I feel grateful for this parting boon, so I bow my head to the forgotten king and turn my gaze to the horizon.”
