One of the brightest rising stars of pop surrealism returns to Dark Horse!

Camilla d'Errico is an artistic dynamo--a highly accomplished painter and comic-book artist as well as a clothing, product, and custom--toy designer. Her handiwork captivates admirers around the world, and some of her best-known creations are these, her studies of beautiful women and their animal companions. Playful and flamboyant, exotic and enigmatic, the women who inhabit these striking paintings embody a fascinating array of contradictions. They dwell in a fantastic world--a circus of color and impossibility--where nothing is quite as it seems.

Perfect for fans of pop art, fine art, manga, and anime, this is the largest collection of Camilla's work to date!

* The largest and most comprehensive book of Camilla's art ever published!

* Camilla's art has appeared in Hi--Fructose, Kid Robot, Juxtapoz, and in galleries around the world!

"Through her fiery nature, creative ability, and profound passion for her craft, Camilla d'Errico has become one of the best of her generation and a true inspiration." --Format Magazine

Informazioni sull'autore

Camilla d'Errico is a first-generation Canadian, born in Ottawa, Ontario. Her Italian parents immigrated to Canada before she was born. From a young age her early interests included Saturday morning cartoons, comics, manga, and doodling fantasy elements in her textbooks. Camilla d'Errico's career as a painter began in 2006, when she participated in shows at Vancouver's Ayden Gallery in Gastown. Since early 2007, d'Errico has been showing her work in galleries across the United States and Canada, in Los Angeles, New York, San Francisco, Chicago, and Vancouver in what is known as the Lowbrow art movement. She is among the group of female artists, including Audrey Kawasaki and Amy Sol, who paint beautiful young girls in the pop surrealism category. With her work on Helmetgirls, d'Errico expanded upon the concept of headgear to include animals of all kinds, intertwining and juxtaposing her stylized, fantasy girls with lifelike animals. Her girls are unusually stunning, doe-eyed, and magnificently colorful female characters. The author lives in Vancouver, Canada.
