"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 Barker. 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,
Hazel Brown, James Browne, David Delamare, Brian Froud,
Maxine Gadd, Jessica Galbreth, Myself, 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".
