Fantasy illustration has sparked the imagination of mankind for generations, bringing color, life and emotion to the world of written and oral stories. I grew up in a childhood rich with imaginative outlets and enjoyed many years of epic Dungeons and Dragons adventures, comic book collecting and collectible card games.

That deep emotional response I receive when I see an amazing fantasy illustration is what my goal is to convey as an artist.

When working on projects I lean toward subject matter that pushes the limits of archetypes and avoid stereotypes. Different materials convey different types of emotions, and I use that for each project. Oil paintings portray a personal and deep spiritual response in the viewer, while watercolor is used for looseness and a kind of unfastened thought that slips between the cracks of the mind.

Namaste, Vaughn Reynolds
