Amy Brown does beautiful drawings on faeries. There are woodsy faeries, elegant faeries, mischievous faeries, etc. She also does beautiful backgrounds, dragons and such. Very fine detail on all of her work.
Your artwork has inspired me. I remember finding this on my mom's bookshelf one day and I wouldn't put the book down for weeks. I enjoy your artwork and I love fairies.
As I'd mentioned in my previous review of the 1st book of Amy's work, it's a MUST-HAVE!!! Our whole artistic family is obsessed with fantasy art & this was an awesome addition to our collection, especially considering we have the 1st one. I think it would be awesome to see more of these, considering how many pieces she has done. Too bad there's not a volume 3, 4, 5...
Todo lo que tuve para decir en "The Art of Amy Brown", lo reitero en "The Art of Amy Brown II". Descubrí ambos libros a la vez en una comiquería de Londres. Me enamoraron, y quería llevarme uno. Debo haber estado más de una hora mirando uno y el otro, cada una de sus páginas, a fin de decidirme por uno de los dos. Me fue imposible. A pesar de que estaba muy justa de dinero, me tuve que llevar ambos. No me arrepiento. Fue la mejor decisión. No hay como recorrer cada una de las ilustraciones de ambos libros a la vez, como para que el humor cambie, y la inspiración llegue. Un verdadero tesoro para tener en mi biblioteca.
