    Skybound
    Skybound is a personal ongoing worldbuilding project. Set in the land of Caelum, a shattered world of floating islands and magically imbued 
creatures, filled with flourishing ecosystems and diverse cultures that exist together in a tenuous harmony Originally a game design, it evolved to become the setting of my D&D campaign, and finally has become a book that I am currently making. Thanks to this project, I have learned so much about not only concept art & design, but about our world, and what beauty lies in the little details.
