hi oskar

well If u really wanna 'study' thts ok..I personally cant help you about that... but if you want to be a concept artist, first of all you have to be an artist. draw, paint, think, feel, want, try, struggle, live, observation and so on... and then becoming a concept artist wouldnt be far away...

school of arts might be ok...but in my opinion no school on this entire planet can teach you or show you how to be an artist, or concept artist.. I recommend you to take my humble advice...there you go...just draw the shit out of you:)

good luck dude.

thx frantic, but it's not like ive never painted before. Im taking small art classes. The thing is i want study more after "highschool" like an university or something like that and learn more how to use Photoshop etc. and i have painted and created landscapes and characters since i was about nine years old and now im seventeen :P, so i just want to polish my skills and i thought if anyone of you nice people new about an art school in sweden, new zealand or florida it would be a great. I just want to learn and travel and struggle and paint and live etc.

thx frantic for replying

well there are artschools in sweden. mostly focusing on fine arts and the graphic design. Examples are Konstfack, beckmans etc. Then you can study industrial design on KTH and Umeå tekniska högskola. In luleå they got computergame development and computer graphics.. if that is what you wanna do it might be a good education.
that is it about sweden.. talk to your "syo" and ash what he/she thinks, i am sure that person will help you.. and remeber taking a year of from studying isn't that bad. ;D

oh..ok then:)

well as Ive said before, unfortunately I cant give any advices about schools...

good luck to you and thumbs up is all I can say:)
