This is a new collection from the best-selling fantasy artist Boris Vallejo. Dreams presents over 120 full-colour paintings, never before presented together, including a rare selection of Boris''s private work.'

In Ladies' ten signature paintings and numerous drawings, Boris Vallejo depicts the magic time when goddesses roamed the earth; they are the perfect accompaniment to Doris Vallejo's poetic and chilling retelling of ten classic tales. This is myth transfigured by a modern sensibility: retelling mythic tales from the points of view of the goddesses, heroines, sorceresses, princesses, wives, and daughters. Readers see Persephone, condemned by a god's adoration to live six months of each year in the kingdom of death; the Gorgon, a great beauty transformed into monstrosity by her own longing to be loved; Apollo's mortal bride, Coronis, left behind each time her godly husband returned to the heavens; and Pandora, who discovered knowledge no mortal was meant to have and paid the price.

This stunning book is packed with outstanding examples of the recent work of Boris Vallejo and Julie Bell, two of the biggest names in the world of fantasy art. Featuring muscle-bound heroes, fierce dragons and dazzlingly beautiful women in fantastical, otherworldly landscapes, their work is unrivalled in its field.

This title gives an in-depth description of how Boris Vallejo and Julie Bell paint their fantasy masterpieces, taking the reader through every stage of the creative process from initial concept to the finishing touches. Step-by-step photographs and the finished artwork are included.
