Scroll (detail) by Bette Burgoyne
Immerse yourself into a fantastic work of art by Bette Burgoyne - what a great trip!
The drawing "Scroll", by artist Bette Burgoyne, was completed in early 2011 and displayed through April 2011 at Amo Art Gallery. "Scroll" is white pencil on black paper, measuring over 10 feet in length. Display requirements make viewing "Scroll" in person a rare experience. In order to share the drawing with everyone, this 5 minute video was created.

- Video editing by Jeff Cerar / 4th Wall Films.

- Music permission for Animal Collective's "Visiting Friends" specifically for "Scroll" granted by Animal Collective, Rough Trade Publishing, and Fat Cat Records.

- Image file of "Scroll" courtesy of Art & Soul Photo, Seattle, WA.

Scroll, a white pencil drawing on black paper measuring over 10 feet in length, debuted in April 2011 at Amo Art.

Strange Lands by Andrew L. Paciorek

Strange Lands
A Field-Guide to the Celtic Otherworld
Post by Otto Rapp
Strange Lands A Field-Guide to the Celtic Otherworld
396 pgs Black and White printing (on cream uncoated paper)
Click the image for a preview of the book
About the Author:
Andy Paciorek is a graphic artist, drawn mainly to the worlds of myth, folklore, symbolism, decadence, curiosa, anomaly, dark romanticism and otherworldly experience. He is fascinated both by the beautiful and the grotesque and the twilight threshold consciousness where these boundaries blur. The mist-gates, edges and liminal zones where nature borders supernature and daydreams and nightmares cross paths are of great inspiration.

About the book:
Strange Lands is a deeply researched and richly illustrated information guide to the entities and beasts of Celtic myth & legend and to the many strange beings that have entered the lore of the land through the influence of other cultures and technological evolution. 
At nearly 400 pages and featuring over 170 original illustrations, Strange Lands is an essential accompaniment for both the novice and seasoned walkers between worlds.
The following text from the foreword by Dr Karl Shuker ~ 
"Right from a child, I have always been fascinated by mythology and folklore, especially the rich corpus originating in the British Isles, and I have read very extensively on the subject. However, I can say in all honesty that Strange Lands is one of the most comprehensive single volumes on British mythological entities that I have ever encountered. Even Dr Katharine M. Briggs’s essential tome, A Dictionary of Fairies, universally acclaimed as the standard work on such beings, now has a rival in terms of the sheer diversity of examples documented. 
And where Strange Lands effortlessly outpoints even that classic work is of course in its illustrations, which are truly breathtaking in their beauty, intricacy, and vibrancy" from the foreword by Dr Karl Shuker
