Star Wars: Illustrated
Stormtrooper with Rebel soldiers of the Tantive IV, illustrated by Christian Waggoner
Take a close look Christian Waggoner's Star Wars art and you'll find unbelievable
photorealistic paintings that make you wonder how he achieves such skillful detail
with a mere brush and canvas.
Boba Fett with Han Solo in carbonite
After a decade of high-profile commissions, in 2007, he decided to turn his love
and passion for the Star Wars series into fine art. His paintings explore light
and reflection, capturing unforgettable moment in the classic film series.
Greedo with Han Solo
My favorite part? How the story is in the reflection.
Darth Vader dueling Obi-Wan
As he says, "I love reflections. I mean, if you crop one of my paintings, it can
be abstract, it can be surreal, it's a play of light, a play of values, how things
get distorted. You can just play around with so much. I'm now trying to take
the art to see more hidden things in the reflections that people will catch."
