Dominic - "Inspiration for my work comes from Art, music and literature, but mostly from
the worlds within myself. The figures that I paint come to me in many different
forms. They are beings from elsewhere who wish to be heard in this world and I
am their channel for communication. Brenda Ferrimani - I began my artistic work in the 1980's as a graphic designer, operating my own design firm with clients throughout the state of Colorado, where I reside. During this time I also became known in the area for the historic murals I painted with private and public commissions, and for my work as President of the Berthoud Arts and Humanities Alliance, lending my support to other Colorado artists. Preferring a new direction from commercial expression, I have recently begun to devote my talents to subjects with personal meaning, and my artistic work now reflects a passion for inner examination. Dream images have captivated my imagination and provide an unending source of inspiration for my paintings. It is my desire to express the mystery of the psyche's inner world and the power of dreams to impact and change our lives. In the year 2000, I was invited to be the attending artist to the International Conference on the Fantastic in the Arts, held in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, and in 2001 my work was included in the art exhibit, "Dream Odysseys," at the Porter Gallery, UC Santa Cruz, and featured in a presentation at the annual ASD conference. In 2007 my painting "Fall Into Fear" was awarded a Nancy Richter Briezki Dream Art Award, at the IASD's conference at Sonoma University, CA. My articles and artwork are regularly published in Dream Network, and DreamTime magazines. I am certified for professional dream work through the Marin Institute of CA Brian and Wendy Froud - Throughout the years, Brian Froud has created some of the most respected and highly acknowledged folklore/mythic artwork of out time.

Froud continues to create visual, spiritual and poetic tales that will last many years to come. Wendy's dolls ands figures are highly sought after and are in many prestigious collections around the world. She now devotes most of her time to making dolls and figures for exhibition and sale throughout the US and England.

Neil Geddes-Ward - Pagan and visionary artist. Praised by the likes of Uri Geller, and Lady Olivier Robertson of The Fellowship of Isis, Neil Geddes-Ward draws inspiration from standing stones, dreams, witchcraft, Green Men and more, to paint beautiful images of what is now becoming known as Pagan and Visionary Art. Molly Harrison - Being forever inspired by mystique and myth, I have somewhat unintentionally chosen the fantasy world of faeries and other mythical beings as my way of embracing the world of art. I use mainly watercolor and ink as my medium of choice, but I don't like to be limited. I have been awe struck by beautiful fantasy masterpieces as far back as I can remember; so I guess this is where I belong. People ask why fantasy art? It's just what I love I guess. I believe that there is more than meets the eye in just about everything, and that includes our world. The mystique in history, legends, and fairytales is something that keeps us searching, keeps us growing, and sort of ties us all together. All art is a form of expression, whether it be symbolic or straightforward. I am definitely an emotive artist which can be good and bad and I'll just leave it at that. I am still searching my heart and hand for that one masterpiece, and maybe when I'm 90 (if I'm so lucky) I'll find it. Until then, this is a fantastic journey that I'll endure. Deborah Holman - My passion has always been drawing and painting. For many years I have particularly enjoyed using watercolours as I love their transparency and being able to work in thin layers allowing the colours below to show through. Most recently, though, I have been experimenting with coloured pencil and acrylics too. I am fascinated by colours and shapes and their interaction on the page and I like to mix abstraction with realism. Lisa Hunt - Lisa holds a M.A. in Interdisciplinary Studies with an emphasis on Jungian Psychology/Art & Drawing. Over the years she has illustrated numerous products including collectible gaming cards, book covers, interior book illustrations, magazines, calendars and a co-authored childrens book. In addition to Lisas illustration and writing career, she works as an adjunct instructor in the Media Arts program at The Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale. She has taught many diverse subjects including Animal Drawing, Dynamic Anatomy and Scripting and Storyboarding. Steve Hutton - I've been drawing since I was old enough to hold a pencil, but despite spending my childhood years drawing monsters from Doctor Who (Tom Baker was my hero) I didn't become an official 'illustrator' until I'd finished my first degree back in 1992. Later I achieved a Masters in the same subject. Having certificates to say I could draw didn't make me a better artist and neither did it help much in finding work, but the gift of being able to draw has been a blissful refuge down the years and that alone is worth a stack of certificates. The completed fifty-two Wildwood characters have proved to be some of the most challenging (but rewarding) of my career, taking two years to complete, many abandoned drawings and many late nights looking at the clock and knowing I ought to get to bed. Reverence for the natural world lies at the core of Wildwood and is a subject that's always attracted me. I've long thought that this important aspect of witchcraft has been played down by populist films and literature. Witches have been vilified in history and I wanted to give something back. Mollie Kellogg - Many of my latest paintings are representational, reflecting my interest in mysticism, spirituality and a deeper connection with Nature. I often find myself inspired by the images in poetry and literature, as well as the work of visual artists like Victorian painter, Lawrence Alma-Tadema and Chicano Artist, George Yepes. Perhaps the most exciting aspect of my current direction is that the more I connect with my deepest passions and inner questions, the more my art seems to resonate with others Stephanie Pui-Mun Law - Stephanie Pui-Mun Law is a freelance artist, whose work consists of fantasy, the otherworld, and the surreal. She has been illustrating since 1996. Stephanie graduated from the University of California at Berkeley in 1998 with a double BA degree in Fine Arts and Computer Science Ama Menec - a sculptor specializing in ancient Goddesses and endangered British wildlife, many of which are Shamanic icons.

Unit 2 Coombe Park, Ashprington, Totnes, Devon, TQ9 7DY, UK. My studio is open to the public 6 days a week and we welcome visitors in sunny south Devon. William Max Miller - William Max Miller is a practicing mental health therapist
who currently lives and works in The Art of Morgaine - I am originally from Yorkshire where the wildness of the moors and dales inspired my early work. After three years spent in the "big sky" country of the United States I moved to Dorset in the summer of 2007. From this base, along with my partner Ledger, I explore many of the ancient sites to be found in the South West. These sites, along with their powerful history, are providing me with much of the inspiration for my more recent paintings. Nature, and my connection to nature, has been and always will be my greatest inspiration.I love to depict the human form at one with nature in all its seasons. Mickie

Sabrina the Ink Witch - Sabrina is a Solitary Witch living and crafting in Pennsylvania, USA. Her pen and ink craftsmanship has been perfected over the last 30 years. Sabrina clings to the "Old style" of dipping her nibbed pen into an Ink Well as her ancestors did so long ago. The art community considers her a “Purist” and upholding this tradition just mirrors her beliefs and love of the craft. Susan Seddon-Boulet - Her early work was clearly more light hearted and simpler in content than later work. Portrayals of medieval figures and fantasy characters, appearing in rainbow bright colors, predominated her early work but evolved into a more complex layering of the anthropomorphic images of animals, Shamans and Goddesses. Working primarily in French oil pastels, inks and occasionally pencil, she developed a distinctive personal style characterized by the use of color applied in layers from which dream-like forms emerged. She drew her inspiration from a wide variety of sources: mythology and poetry, Jungian psychology and worldwide spiritual traditions, as well as a deep love of animal and the natural world. There is a fairy tale quality to her work, a sentimental reacalling of childhood dreams of fairies and castles and magic. Her art exerted and continues to exert a profound influence on the lives that it touches. Nene Thomas - Romantic fantasy artist. Nene Currently lives in Oklahoma City with her husband Steven Plagman, who is also her framer and fancy mat cutter.
