Tarek Art http://tarekart.com Just another WordPress weblog Sat, 05 May 2012 23:11:27 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=4.9.3 Photos of Lebanon http://tarekart.com/photos-of-lebanon/ http://tarekart.com/photos-of-lebanon/#comments Fri, 24 Feb 2012 17:35:27 +0000 http://tarekart.com/?p=139

Aside from my passion for drawing, I also do the occasional photography, and in Lebanon you can’t go anywhere without literally tripping on an ancient ruin of old, or seeing a magnificent wild flower that is probably still unknown to science.
So here are some photos for your viewing pleasure.

Just added some more photos enjoy.

These are sketches about fantasy worlds, one is a landscape where a monastery watches over a wide open valley. The other is of a catacomb build high above abysmal darkness to safe guard the dead from the shadows below.
I added a new sketch, its a futuristic port city for space ships enjoy. Also I added a concept for a cryogenic hold on a space ark, this was one of my old sketches I just revamped it a little using photo shop.

These sketches are about various amazing machines. I get inspired by many sources and stories, and like all artists, I drew these as I imagined them.  For example, the Nautilus sketch was concocted after reading Jules Verne’s Twenty Thousand Leagues under the Sea.

The sketches of the citadel guard and the Merman are about fantasy creatures that you will find in a novel that I’m writing now. The other two creatures are fan art for some of my favorite fantasy games; I always find games and stories quite inspiring. I added two new sketches, one is of the vicious sky horde trooper, and the other is a drawing of a wild dragon that lives on mountain summits.

These are some of my space fantasy concepts. I always felt that when drawing spaceships or fantasy worlds, an artist gets more freedom to be creative and really exercise his/her imagination.

This is a design project I made when I was at college, it’s a visual design for the Spinneys mall, where I redesigned the mall logo and then designed the signs, promotional items, poster, site map, and T-shirts for staff according to the new logo idea.
