Customer Reviews

A wonderful compilation from one of my fave artists!!!

Amy Brown is by far my favorite fantasy artist, running a close race with Nene Thomas & Jessica Galbreth. I was so excited when I found this book at an available price. It has a little text about each piece, which I'm a sucker for & usually is what persuades my like/love barometer. Before reading this, I never knew the astounding total number of artworks she'd produced over the years. A definite must-have for all fantasy art lovers!!

Amy Brown's Book of Art

When I first saw this book, I was at Hot Topic and was just browsing. I had already known for years who Amy Brown was, and was a big fan of her artwork. My sister apparently noticed how much I was enjoying the book, and ended up buying it for me for Christmas. I was blown away to say the very least. I don't exactly know what it is, but Amy Brown, just has something in her paintings that literally make you feel like you are really watching a faerie or whatever mystical creature it is right in front of you. Just when I think I know a picture completley, I look again and find something new to love about it. Also, something I liked, about the book specifically, was that below each painting is Amy saying something about the painting. I would reccomend this book not just to Amy Brown fans, but to any fans of fantasy paintings, you will truly be blown away.

A must for faery lovers!

I have been collecting Amy Brown faery art for several years. She definitely has an affinity for the Fae. I recommend this book along with Brian Froud's books.

AMAZING BOOK, HIGHTLY RECOMMENDED!!

ok, let me start by telling you that I have a huge library of fantasy literature & illustration books. I own just about every fantasy illustrated book out there, but this is that ONE book that I constantly look at. It's like getting around 150 Amy Brown prints for the price of one or two!! Amy's artwork is just amazing, and there's so much detail to each page, that you can look at it for hours. Each page of the book is a full print of Amy's artwork, and most of the pages have a little note of information from Amy about that specific painting. If you love fantasy and fairies, this is a MUST HAVE for your collection. You won't be disappointed in this one. Can't wait for the next one Amy!!!!!!!!!!!

Beauty of Amy Brown's art

I received this marvelous book as a Christmas gift. This was the first time I saw any of Amy's work. I became enthralled with her beautiful imagery. She now has a most devoted fan of her work. I look forward to another book filled with the beauty of the first one.

It's about time!

I've been an Amy Brown fan for years and years - have been a collector of her works and have watched her go from a modest fantasy artist of fairies to someone popular and is now famous in certain art circles. Many people, like me, had waited for a long time for her to compile her favorite and best pieces into a book. And it was very well put together. She chose pieces I would have chosen myself, plus she has many newer pieces too. Almost all of the artwork is done in watercolor, which is what she is most known for. She knows how to blend the colors with water and pencils in a way that is truly her own style. Her classic signature feet (no toes) was consistent throughout... and her renditions of fairies, dragons, and even mermaids bring out her truly eclectic style. I can't wait to see book #2!!!
