Product Description
Twisted landscapes, ominously swirling skies, creatures plucked from myth and nightmare. And women—passionate, strong, rendered with extraordinary anatomical detail, who captivate with their beauty and fierceness. Born of the heated imaginations of husband-and-wife artists Boris Vallejo and Julie Bell, the Fantasy Calendar for 2009 features thirteen all-new paintings that plunge the viewer into a world that is dark, dynamic, and mysterious, ruled by magic and roamed by fearsome beasts. A priestess sleeps among the tangled roots of a tree, oblivious to the menacing robot looming over her. Two sensuous maidens lull a colorful dragon into submission. A woman battles to stay astride her powerful white steed, her eyes steely and intense. Weaving the dramatic images together is "The Stones of Thay'mir," an original story by C.J. Henderson.

I bought this for my boyfriend... it shipped from the seller well and on time, it was packaged well and was not damaged at all during shipping. It seems to be a quality fantasy art calendar... if this is something you are into I would consider buying next years from this seller.
