1. Amazing Psychedelic Art by Luminokaya

This is a showcase of wonderful trippy art by one artist from planeta Zemlya , our Universe – Luminokaya. His digital creations are really cool and there is no wonder this post took the first place.

2. Psychedelic Art of Matei Apostolescu

Matei Apostolescu is one of my favorite vector artists. I highly recommend you take a look at his designs.

3. Psychedelic Art exhibition showcase

Last summer I’ve organized my first psychedelic exhibition. It took place at Pustie Holmi – the major Russian art and music festival of unbound creation. We had several artists who have sent me their artworks. You can see all of them within this post.

4. Zion future city free psychedelic wallpaper

I did this wallpaper after me and my girlfriend have visited Zion National Park in Utah. I think this was the most exciting place I’ve been to so far. If you are somewhere nearby don’t miss a chance to get thrilled!

Looks like many people are interested in making vector mandalas. Well this is not a traditional Buddhist mandala – just a concentric circular composition, but you can easily learn some mandala-related techniques reading this tutorial.

6. How to create psychedelic landscape vector cd cover with Adobe Illustrator part II

I really love doing art for psy trance musicians. During the time I did not have any work of such kind I decided to make some album cover art for a fictional artist Psyctor (Psy for psychedelic and -ctor for ve-ctor). This tutorial has two parts – first and second. The first part was also on the list by I decided to add an artist who deserves more attention (you’ll see him below).

7. How to create a psychedelic vector music album cover in Abode Illustrator and Adobe Photoshop

OK, this is another Psyctor album cover art tutorial. It covers not only vector art work, but some work with reference images in Adobe Photoshop.

8. Psychedelic spring fairy free wallpaper

Psychedelic spring fairy is one of the last wallpapers I did for Smashing magazine. I have not sent them any stuff for quite a while since they need less hallucinogenic art, but maybe I’d come back to them in future.

9. Psychedelic elephant vector elements pack

As you might have already noticed I’m doing some resources for other artists to use. This one turned out to be the most popular. You can even find it in one of blotter shops.

This is the guy I’ve been talking previously. Take your time and watch the sunny art by Luke from New Orleans!
