Ralph McQuarrie Died Today

Concept Art of Luke on Tattooine

I find conceptual art for film to be the heart of a film's look. These creative souls, a cinema's most important visioneers.

He did the Concept Art for many notable iconic films such as:
The Star Wars  Trilogy
Star Trek
E.T.
Close Encounters of the Third Kind
Raiders of the Lost Ark
Total Recall
Forbidden Planet 
...and more
