Beschreibung:
The Monster Art of Basil Gogos was produced under a partnership between FantaCo and Basil Gogos' wife, Linda. This agreement gave us access to all of Basil's private sketches and illustrations for some of his most famous paintings, as well as many hundreds of preliminary sketches for never published projects. This book will show you how Basil used his sketches to create his wonderful paintings. It is arranged by monster (Wolfman, Creature, Dracula, Frankenstein, etc.) so it will be easy to find your favorite!
