My site is made up of two subject matters, which are villages and cities.
The majority of these cities and villages are inspired by Middle-Eastern architecture and life.
My villages tend to be almost all my imagination, while the city ones often have a real existing landmark.
However this landmark I make richer and more intricate then it is in the real world.
I also sometimes paint fantasy paintings, however it remains having the same style as my primitive art paintings.
