I just learned the term "zen tangle", which sounds like a scientific expression for "scribbling is fun", but anyway, I met this particular form of shapes as "linear expressionism" a few years ago and already made some felt pen drawings then (that I can't find anymore), and I find it indeed quite relaxing to do, regardless of term. Ink pens on photo paper sheets, 10×15cm.
When Ulisses' art director told me about visualizing Khunchom, I think I was scared stiff for a moment - Khunchom being one of the largest cities of Aventuria - but in the end, it was pretty cool to give such a place my own touch. I made a 3D model in Blender to help with the perspective. --- Als Ulisses' Art Director mir davon erzählte Khunchom zu illustrieren, war ich einen Moment starr vor Schreck - Khunchom ist eine der größten Städte Aventuriens - aber schließlich war es ziemlich cool einem solchen Schauplatz meinen Anstrich zu verleihen. Ein 3D-Modell mit Blender hat mir bei der Perspektive geholfen.
A fantasy map I did for the Iron Teeth novels by Scott Straughan. This will appear in book two of the series, to be found on Amazon, https://www.amazon.com/Goblins-Tale-Iron-Teeth-Book-ebook/dp/B071LHHY85/ I really enjoy using brushes that emulate messy mediums. Painter's Liquid Ink brushes produce strokes that flow together like tiny pools and can be made to look like old, haphazardly drawn maps. And there is a dragon in a ruined city. Really cool commission.
