Sneak Peek of Encyclopedia Mythologica: Fairies!

This month we thought we'd compare the white dummy of Fairies with the color artwork for the final book. Here you can see Queen Titania in one of the early stages.

This photo shows that Queen Titania's pose has stayed mostly the same since she was originally designed! Can you see the details that have changed?

Color can make the pop-ups very dramatic!
This before/after picture of a pixie is a photo of the white dummy with a photo of the finished pop-up.

In another before/after picture, a pillywiggin makes her transformation from sketch to final artwork!

These pictures show the "Fairy Ring" spread. With a pencil, artist and author Matthew Reinhart sketched his artwork directly onto the white pop-up.

Matthew makes the final art by cutting shapes out of colored paper and gluing them onto a big sheet of paper. The artwork for this spreead took about a week to create!
