Impressive Dark Fantasy Dystopian Art By Michael MacRae

Gritty, dark fantasy, dystopian, and at times, creepy art is the crime today. The culprit is Michael MacRae, a talented artist from DeviantArt who has created a whole world on his own. By world, we mean that he has created art with a certain flow of continuity and with a story attached to each piece. Thus Michael is also a great storyteller.

His world seems to be decaying, slowly falling apart with a lot of Sci-Fi elements, and a couple of survivors facing great dangers. The illustrations are very well detailed and the story for each of them is captivating. We highly recommend you head towards the artist’s page to read more about it.

Below we present some of our favourite illustrations from this artist. We have to warn you fellow lazy penguins that quite a few of them are a bit spooky!

Not only does it have a story associated with it, but the setting also encourages our imagination to run free and look for explanations while looking at the image.
