Gaming has always been a huge part of my life. I couldn't count the amount of hours spent button bashing my way through endless dungeons and tedious platformers, and never would I have thought I would still be doing that exact same thing in my late 20s.
I have to confess that as I've grown older, I have somewhat lost that excitement I once had for playing games. However, my eyes have been opened to the world of concept art and I love it!
Have you ever wondered who comes up with these ideas for new games? How do studios decide what stuff looks like in the game? Guns, cars, level design, characters, you name it, it all begins with an idea, a concept.
Since discovering these amazing concept art paintings, beautiful landscapes and amazing character designs on deviant art several years ago, that's when I knew what I wanted to do. What better way to keep gaming close to your heart than to work on actually designing them yourself.
Most people haven't heard of concept art before. If you haven't then try this. Think of your favorite game, type it in google and add "concept art" on the end, sit back and be amazed.
Since discovering these amazing digital paintings, I've made it my business to be a part of it, I paint as much as I can, as often as time will allow. I can appreciate the effort that goes into the artwork and have a new respect for the industry and development of today's best games.
