Mythic World
A new colouring book from New York Times bestselling illustrator, Kerby Rosanes, whose detailed illustrations are loved by adults and children alike.
Mythic World features over 55 mythical creatures and legends to colour. Showcasing some of the best-known creatures alongside some you might not have discovered before, each scene shows them interacting with and morphing out of some of the most distinctive landscapes in our world today. Warring giants morph out of The Giant’s Causeway in Northern Ireland, petrified trolls come back to life in Icelandic rock formations, the Bhutanese Druk emerges from Mount Everest's cloudy summit and much more.
Colour and discover the classical myths of Ancient Greece and Rome; celtic folklore from Ireland and Scotland; oriental tales from Japan and China; and norse sagas from across Scandinavia. Pages at the back of the book provide a brief introduction to each mythical creature and explain the inspiration and rationale behind each illustration.
Philippines-based illustrator Kerby Rosanes has turned his stunningly detailed and fantastical artwork into a worldwide publishing phenomenon. Working mainly with ordinary black pens, Kerby's art is characterized by whimsical lines, patterns and doodle creatures which are combined to create awe-inspiring compositions.
He left his job as a graphic designer in a local company to finally pursue his passion: creating more art for personal projects and for various clients, and collaborating with other artists and design agencies around the world.
Kerby's colouring and doodling books, Animorphia, Imagimorphia, Mythomorphia, Fantomorphia, Geomorphia, Colourmorphia, Kaleidomorphia, Worlds Within Worlds, Fragile World, Mythic World, Alien Worlds, World of Colour, Colour Universe, Reflections, Wondrous Animals and Mythic Animals published by LOM ART (Michael O'Mara Books), have been hugely successful and have sold over two million copies across 35 territories.
