| Book on Big-eye art to be released in March | Sat, 8 Mar 2008 |
|
"This extraordinary book offers a fascinating insight into the fantastical, sometimes bizarre, metaphysical world of big-eye art. It tells the evolving story of this incredible art form, and showcases the work of 22 specialist artists ranging from some of the world’s most established fantasy artists such as Jasmine Becket-Griffith and Misha, to the rising stars of the genre. More than 150 illustrations bring this magical world vividly to life, from great-eyed dragons and cute puppies to pity kitties and all-seeing dolls. The illustrations evince a move towards a more gothic – even slightly macabre – style that will captivate collectors and enthusiasts throughout the world." |
