Belated Friday Art Attack

I know it's already Wednesday evening, so Friday will come around again before we know it. However, I'm not sure how Fridays are going to go anymore. Last week, I had no opportunity to make a post. This week, I probably will if for no other reason then because once work is over, my wife is out of town, so my time is completely my own. But we'll see. Work has been insanely insane lately—almost toxic, to be honest with you—so I thought I'd make a post now, in case I don't get to.


I love the Morrison Formation. So much. It is even the formation that made me really appreciate the sauropods, which otherwise would be "giant scaly cows" and not terribly interesting to me.





A few more of my bright and polite retro-futurist images. Same artist, I believe, as the last batch. I have a few more yet that I haven't used. But I'm about ready to move on.


A Lovecraftian sword & sorcery type image.


The deep, dark forest is not only part of the soul of the Northern European, but also an object of fear to him as well as a wild and untrammeled wilderness.


I've long been a fan of mingling fantasy and gothic horror. This Dracula-like castle in a storm on a mountain ridge is the perfect image to represent that.



I believe these are both screen shots from the Assassin's Creed game about ancient Greece. To me, though, who's never played an Assassin's Creed game in my life, they're just cool images of ancient Greek champions.


Another dark and spooky foresty fantasy landscape. 

A rather cheesecakey and cliched "sexy Galadriel", with a touch of 70s hippy van art vibe. I don't love this kind of stuff, but I like it well enough to have a few in my collection.
