Creative World Designs: 30 Inspiring Concept Artworks

Concept art is art that is created to express a given theme, idea, mood, setting or concept, in a relatively short amount of time. Some concept art is incredibly rough, with clearly visible brush strokes and rough areas visible, while other concept art is highly refined, almost indistinguishable from computer graphics. Either way, concept art must establish the proper perspective, lighting, mood and concept so as to allow for future development for film, games or other media. Concept art is also a highly popular style for practice work, as it allows artists to experiment with various scenes and views without investing the amount of time required for a full digital painting, matte painting or 3D environment.

Here you’ll find 30 inspiring concept artworks that will get you inspired to try your own hand at concept art. While it can be created using just a mouse, it is generally advised to use a drawing tablet for superior control and workflow.
