Description

Shaun Tan's Creature Paintings, Drawings, and Reflections is a collection of essays that explore his thoughts and advice for writers and artists. Drawing upon 25 years as a picture book and comics creator, painter, and film-maker, the book delves into the central obsession of this visionary artist, from casual doodles to studied oil-paintings. Tan shares unseen and stand-alone illustrations, each resonant with unwritten tales of their own, offering an entertaining insight into the endless allure of imaginary, non-human beings. Detailed commentary by the artist provides a unique perspective on the deeper undercurrents of creativity, myth, and visual metaphor. This book is likely to inspire artists, writers, students, dreamers, and anyone interested in exploring the creative process and its connections to human experience.
