Book Description
Illustrator Tommy Castillo makes a study of the classic myths and ancient tales that have both fascinated and frightened people throughout history. Taking a decidedly ?gothic horror? look at such story-time staples as ?Little Red Ridinghood?, ?Alice in Wonderland?, and ?The Wizard of Oz?, Castillo crafts traditional fairy tales into something much darker. With an obvious and overwhelming affection for dragons, Tommy brings these legendary reptiles to life in a myriad of styles and fashions. This book also contains a brilliant showcase of sketches and designs that feature the artist?s greatest labors of love.
About the Author
Tommy Castillo is an artist as restless as he is imaginative. Equally at home on film, video, or illustration, Tommy has worked for DC Comics on the Batman title, designed for music videos and storyboarded films for horror-meister Tom Savini. Castillo?s taste for the macabre and the darkly humorous is evident in all his work, and Dragons, Myths & Mayhem is is first opportunity to share those passions in a purely personal arena. The artist also spends time as an art instructor and guest lecturer. Of his career, Castillo has said, ?The ability to live off my artwork is the greatest gift I could ever receive, well, next to having my wife, Kirsten, at my side.?
