In this #scifiart #chalkdrawing Kara Hoblin (@karabellaa) takes us on a cosmic voyage to a far off nebula. It's fascinating how well chalk lends itself to create so many layers of blended color allowing the masses of interstellar dust and gas to take some nearly literal shape as it almost seems to pull off the slate. Kara has a really been stepping up her chalk game recently and especially as a result of exploring different subjects to draw. While I KNEW that this some kind of star trek…

In this #penandink #sketchbook doodle by Rob Turpin (@thisnorthernboy) the inhabitants of a cliff-dwelling house travel the seas on a mysterious floating island... but no one seems to bother them. They either have some killer security system or theyve tapped into some Elder God magic and fastened a dozen or so tentacles to their chunk of terra firma. Security and propulsion... and only at the sake of a few points of sanity? Sounds like a deal to me! Drawn with: Carbon Platinum fountain pen…

Kerby Rosanes (@kerbyrosanes) sends us on a mythic nautical expedition in this epic #fantasyart #illustration. I am not sure how that sailing ship found itself beneath a Pegasus Cloudscape Personification or floating above some wicked Full Moon Whale Abyss and I DEFINITELY dont know why both of those indescribable events are taking place concurrently... but it is quite an awesome sight to behold. The amazing subject matter of this sketchbook drawing is only matched by the great details…

A feline sword-swinging hero sulks on a pile of treasure in this #fantasy #illustration by Andy Estrada (@andy_estra). Im not sure why he seems angry what with that mound of gems and gold coins about him but I suppose it could have something to do with his broken sword or his tiny cat feet or silly reposters that make up stories about him gulp Maybe thats why hes sneering in our general direction... if looks could kill Im sure he wouldnt need a gigantic robot sword. As always Andy…

Artemii Myasnikov (@art_veider) sets us on a quest along side his swordsman character in this great piece of #fantasyart. Cresting the hill between a pair of dying trees we catch a view of a mountain home in the distance obscured by a dirty haze that lingers in the air. The cool thing about this house is that we cannot tell precisions how large it is. This could be your run-of-the-mill human-sized home or it could be the abode of a giant! I mean the house does take up the ENTIRE peak of a…

Some awesome #penandink #fantasyart by Eli Klemmeck (@neomlei) of a forest spirit spreading life energy through its arboreal glade under a cosmic canopy of stars. Besides his being a really cool concept for an illustration I really love the flowing shades of gray in the channels of energy the backlit trees of the forest and the galactic nebulae in the sky. Great work Eli! :::::: #natureart #fantasy #blacklines #blackworks #fantasy #iblackwork #ink #inkdrawing #darkart #landscapeart…

Meni Chatzipanagiotou (@menis_art) grants us this magical view into the #fantasy world of Harry Potter with this #penandink #illustraion of Hogwarts. And when Meni does magical views she really goes for the Golden Snitch. This drawing is magical in its awesome detail and content. It depicts the approach of a small row boat (perhaps carrying Harry and Hagrid?) under pale moon light where the surrounding waters create a second sky with its reflection of the infinite starry cosmos above the…

Heres a great #penandink #fantasyarchitecture #illustration by @thisnorthernboy (Rob Turpin) that I just stumbled upon. A lone tower with auxiliary attached building stands upon a floating chunk of stone. Has it always been isolated and separate from the ground below? I believe not for why would you build stairs leading down to... absolutely nothing? Those stairs must have lead you somewhere at some time long passed but no longer. Or perhaps it was not an event that happened that long ago…

Konstantin Vavilov (@vakon) takes us on a terrifying #fantasy #adventure in this illustration as we delve into the depths of the Buried City. Our supposed hero enters the scene armed with a what appears to be naught but a fiery torch and a sizable dagger partially obscured by shadow. At first glance it would appear that he is rather unprepared for some solo spelunking into a dangerous dungeon... especially as he unwittingly walks into a corridor populated by a fetid smog of specters…

Peter Pan rocks a killer sword in this #fantasy #penandink #drawing by Robb Mommaerts (@robbmommaerts). Drawn for Day 6 of #Inktober for the prompt word Sword Robb gives us a wickedly cool reimagining of The Boy That Doesnt Grow Up and his partner in pirate pranking Tinkerbell. Robb adorns Peters armor with what I think are oak leaves and details his pants (stockings?) with stitches from where they have had to be mended countless times. The true departure from the classic character design…

Awesome #pendrawing depicting yet another scene from an epic #fantasy world illustrated by @ullikummi. Drawn for Day 22 of @Inktober with the prompt Trail Ullikummi places a monster hunter of sorts on the trail of some ravenous beast that is currently housing itself in a spooky abode that the locals call the House of the Damned. I imagine that the hunter was expecting a bit more from this place. He seems to be the type that would normally track down monsters to dark fortresses abandoned…

This gorgeous #LordoftheRings #oilpainting by William O'Connor (@woconnorstudios) is entitled "Race to Minas Tirith. In this piece inspired by the works of J.R.R. Tolkien Minas Tirith towers above the surrounding landscape standing as a beacon of hope as the capital of Gondor the Kingdom of Men. However glorious this monolithic city might be though the destructive force of Mount Doom looms in the distance with the shadow of its volcanic clouds spreading over the land. The glowing tower of…

In this #fantasy #sketchbook #illustration by Alfredo (@redolaf) we see an interesting twist on the concept of a haunted town. When I imagine a town that is haunted I expect that each of the buildings might contain one or a group of ghosts or maybe objects in the street might levitate randomly due to ectokinetic activity in the area or perhaps there might be only a single poltergeist roaming the town going from home to home reeking havoc. In Alfredos scenario though it appears as though…

Heres a cool #fantasy #architecturedrawing by Dennis Kretzing (@denniscreatething) of a tall tower built in a floating mass of stone. Its probably a great way to spot would-be invaders long before they show up at your door plus it looks like a pretty well-defended location. Though now that I think about it this tower probably wasnt built on a piece of floating rock. If you examine the drawing youll note that there is a well and in the ground below that well the bucket used for drawing water…

Beautiful piece of #penandink #fantasyart by @monlee1213 of an astronaut questing across a sea of cosmic clouds who happens upon a wandering space whale. We are unsure of the astronaut's destination but perhaps his new whale friend can help him get where he needs to go. I love the bubbly clouds and how crisply they are separated from the vast void of space. It's interesting how before noticing that the explorer was standing on them I perceived the clouds to be vaporous and light. After…
