American Monsters
Here's a great collection of artwork of monsters that exist in legend around America.

Andrej & Olga Dugin
"The enchanting work of the husband and wife team Andre and Olga Dugin fills the pages of their unique re-telling of the Grimm Brother's story THE BRAVE LITTLE TAILOR. The duo (both originally from Moscow, now living in Germany) works in the tradition of Hieronymous Bosch or Peter Bruegel. In their version, which took over two years to produce, each corner of every illustration is filled with outrageous details; a gigantic fish sits in a birdcage, a tiny elephant walks upside down on the ceiling, winged salt shakers carry threaded needles."

Jüri Arrak
Much of Arrak's work is filled with blob like monsters.
There are many unusual beasts to be found in Arrak's paintings and drawings. Check out this dragon like creature.

Dušan Kállay






















A Slovac illustrator who's worked on books such as Lewis Carrol's "Alice In Wonderland", Kallay has an incredibly bizarre imagination. His monumental surreal creatures lumber about equally strange landscapes.

"Dušan Kállay is entitled to be considered the most well known and the most acknowledged Slovak artist abroad. The number of books illustrated by him, re-editions and editions in foreign languages included comes to two hundred. The works of Dušan Kállay are a final form of an absolute visual seeing and perception of the world supported by an extraordinary imagination and sense for fantasy applied in bizarre compositions of figures, animals and birds in a labyrinth of endless twisted structures documenting both the playfulness and a mysterious character of the artist." quote taken from here.

Yuri Borovitsky
This Russian artist creates dark works using the mezzotint etching technique. The distortions in some of these etchings reminded me of Chris Mars.

Albín Brunovsky






















Many incredible etchings/lithographs in this gallery. The meshing of architecture and landscape is very bizarre.
