Worth Tracking Down,
By
This review is from: The Silver Arm (Hardcover)
His work is not easily compared to anyone else I can think of, although if Alphonse Mucha might have embraced western European legend and fantasy, I could imagine some similarities, mainly with the intricate Celtic knotwork detail in the border. This roughly 9x12 hardcover is printed on nice stock, and the colors are quite vibrant. Fitzpatrick's stories are well complemented by the artwork as he writes about "The Transformations of Tuan," "The Kingship of Breas," "The Re-instatement of Nuada of the Silver Arm," "The Coming of the Il-Dana," "The Track of the Dagda's Club," "The Invasions of the Fomor," and "The End of the Second Battle of Moy Tura." I can't imagine anyone who owns this book could be disappointed by it. It's well worth tracking down and adding to your artbook, history, Celtic myth, or general fantasy collection.To see some artwork from this book,(...) Also, my review is regarding a Paper Tiger printing circa 1994.

Celtic art in the modern age,

This review is from: Silver Arm (Paperback)
Jim Fitzpatrick has got to be the master of the modern Celtic technic. His art can stand alone, but when paired with ancient myth as in this book Silver Arm brings these myths to life to modern eyes. Love the book and will buy anything published by him.The Silver Arm
