It was at the Florence Academy of Art that Lucas first began merging classical techniques with modern sci-fi and fantasy narratives. The US artist, a graduate of the American Academy of Art, travelled to Italy as an exchange student and fell in love with Renaissance and Baroque art.

“I consider myself fortunate to be part of the sci-fi and fantasy art community, where mentors continuously challenge me to cultivate my skills,” says Lucas.

The Chicago-based freelance illustrator began his career creating concepts for collectibles company the Bradford Exchange, before moving into card game and literary art.
