Sunday Art Review: Fantasy in Art

This week's edition of the Sunday Art Review brings a somewhat unexpected genre for me to present. I've been fascinated by the video game Oblivion, which is part of the Elder Scrolls series. I'm not an Xbox maniac, in fact I don't even play- John does. He plays and I watch. I am so fascinated by Oblivion, aside from an interesting story line, it has such enchanting music that I find myself drawn to it. When he plays Oblivion-sometimes for hours it is like I've entered the fantasy world and get to know all these interesting characters. This was the inspiration for this week's edition of the Sunday Art Review: Fantasy in Art. Mind you, none of this art has anything to do with Oblivion or Xbox, so there is my disclaimer up front. In the meantime enjoy these...
