The Art of Dragons is a stunning survey of amazing contemporary fantasy artwork, specifically of dragons – that most popular of fantasy creatures. The inspirational foreword is by fantasy legend and Lord of the Rings film concept artist John Howe. The 'Masters of Dragon Art' section includes such favourites as Don Maitz and Bob Eggleton. A fascinating discussion of dragons and fantasy art runs throughout the book, alongside a large selection of some of the best contemporary artwork, which is interspersed with features presenting artists' works-in-progress, providing invaluable insight on technique. The Art of Dragons is an inspiration and a feast for the eyes.
Graeme Aymer has been writing about creativity and design for over ten years for titles that include Computer Arts, Computer Arts Projects and MacWorld. Raised on a diet of Marvel comics, Muppet monsters and battlestars, he was born in North London and grew up in such contrasting climes as Jamaica, The Bahamas and Massachusetts before returning to London just in time for the 1990s. John Howe (Foreword) was lead conceptual artist of The Lord of the Rings movie trilogy alongside Alan Lee, and his vision of the dragon Smaug has set a standard. His work has also been inspired by such legends as Beowulf and he has illustrated many other books, including A Diversity of Dragons. He also contributed to the film adaptation of The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe. Most recently, Howe has published a book exploring his own dragon artworks: John Howe, Forging Dragons.
