The Art of Faery
A new fairy book commissioned and produced by Chrysalis
Books and presented by David Riché features my
pictures and drawings with foreword written by Brian
Froud.
 "From
the gothic fantasies of Amy Brown to Myrea Pettit's
gentle, playful creatures, this breathtaking collection
of superbly reproduced paintings celebrates the finest
in fairy art.
The new and modern artists whose work appears here
triumphantly occupy the space left by such innovators
as Arthur Rackham and Cicely Mary Baker. Some have rebelled
against the old traditions or turned them on their head;
others follow in the paths forged by earlier masters.
Each one has chosen his or her favorite pieces, and
all the illustrators reveal their inspiration, preferred
techniques, and working methods.
Pen-and ink, watercolor, oil, pastel: every medium
is represented in gorgeous images by John Arthur, Julie
Baroh, Jasmine Becket-Griffith, Linda Biggs, Amy Brown,
myself, James Browne, David Delamare, Brian Froud, Maxine
Gadd, Jessica Galbreth, Marja Lee Kru˙t, Myrea Pettit,
Natalia Pierandrei, Stephanie Pui Mun-Law, Linda Ravenscroft,
Ann Mari Sjögren, Paulina Stuckey, Ryu Takeuchi, Jacqueline
Collen-Tarrolly, Kim Turner and Maria J.William".
