Another great book of Broms darkly beautiful art. Can't get enough of the traditional style of painting and I often use this book as a reference whenever I'm doing a dark comic or something. Just love the way he paints. Thank you for letting us into the dark creative mind of yours Brom! Another great book of Broms darkly beautiful art.

I became acquainted with Brom's work when I picked up his adult illustrated book Plucker. I was hooked. Someone once said "art is supposed to disturb the comfortable and comfort the disturbed", and I feel Brom's works do that. Aside from being fantastic and creative they carry with them a sense of horror, as if something isn't completely right [and honestly how right can it be if half your face is melting off, do ya feel me?]. But that's what I love about it, it's weird, it's quirky, it might sca I became acquainted with Brom's work when I picked up his adult illustrated book Plucker. I was hooked.

As an art graduate myself just looking at his shading and blending still makes me sit down in awe. I'm still working on getting that good, and I'm dying to see more of his stuff out there. This collection is made up of 3 categories, book covers, trading cards, and dark age.

One of my favorite artists. He does some really original Fantasy work.

Some serious skill at drawing the human (and occasionally not so human) body. His work leans towards the disturbing, but his ability is genuinely amazing.

An easy, simple, pleasant read.
Angela Holtz –
It was amazing. Not really anything to read, just page after page of his pictures. Keep it up, Brom. It's dark and captivating. It was amazing. Not really anything to read, just page after page of his pictures. Keep it up, Brom. It's dark and captivating.

All the magnificent and eye-catching artwork by BROM from the year of 1994 to 2000. Couldn't help myself but kept watch those artwork again and again. Totally brilliant. Love it...

This is the first volume in the collected works of Brom, and it is a beauty! Starting off with his artwork from age 5 through his teens, the book showcases the progression of one of fantasy's most brilliant (and disturbing) artists. Many of his most famous pieces are presented here in a large enough size to appreciate the painting style that has made Brom famous. A must have for the Brom enthusiast!

aaaah, brom strikes me once again with his beautiful imagery. i connected with the collector and editor of this book who also happens to be an obsessed fan of this man's work. she managed to combine not only his visual art but also his literary. this was how i found his poetry - dark fantasy combined with the whimsical heart of a magnificent poet. aaaah, brom strikes me once again with his beautiful imagery. i connected with the collector and editor of this book who also happens to be an obsessed fan of this man's work. she managed to combine not only his visual art but also his literary. this was how i found his poetry - dark fantasy combined with the whimsical heart of a magnificent poet.

A little "Giger" a little steampunk and a whole lot of awesome. Recognize some of the art from album covers and company adverts. Check it out! A little "Giger" a little steampunk and a whole lot of awesome. Recognize some of the art from album covers and company adverts. Check it out!

Brom is my favorite fantasy artist. His figures are solitary and strong and often have a transgendered like look to them. They are also very dark but not in a too horrific way.
