Themes In Conceptual Art

I think the topic that easily grabbed my attention the quickest was Invention and Fantasy. I hope I'm not misinterpreting this genre because when I think Invention I think Sci-Fi, and with Fantasy well, obviously fantasy. As a kid 2 of the first games I played were Halo: Combat Evolved, a Sci-Fi FPS and Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, an obviously fantasy puzzle action game. I got the chance to play these around when I was 6 or 8 years old, I don't have a good enough memory to remember the exact age. As time went on though, I got more and more into Fantasy (while still enjoying Sci-Fi) with the Lord of the Rings trilogy being one of my first memories from when I first moved to Pennsylvania at around 10 years old, and my dad giving my the Dark Elf Trilogy by R.A Salvatore as a bit of reading to do over the long summers before I actually got friends up here. Fantasy has always been a genre I could escape to when things got hard, and I love the messages that can be delivered ...
