Virtual Wanderlust
Virtual Wanderlust: Landscapes from Another World
In recent years, virtual tourism has become much more than a hobby: it has evolved into a true artistic movement. Traveling within video games isn't just about playing—it's about observing, capturing, and reinterpreting.
This is a collection of painterly images born during my digital journeys—shots transformed to evoke the beauty of impressionist and post-impressionist brushstrokes.
Each image you see here was captured inside digital worlds—landscapes that don't exist in real life, yet manage to convey real emotion. Through a combination of artistic filters, manual texturization, and carefully chosen color grading, I've turned these screenshots into digital canvases. The painterly effect is designed to recreate light, atmosphere, and depth.
From the endless calm of a flower-filled field to the melancholy of autumn ruins, from the grandeur of a digital cliffside to the cold lights of a futuristic metropolis—these scenes are windows into alternative worlds, but also mirrors of our own inner landscapes.
Welcome to my virtual travels.
Where reality ends, imagination begins.
