For a long, long time, goblins and fairies have lived in a magical world right beneath our noses. If you look hard enough, you can find rings of mushrooms, called "fairy rings", which act as doors between their world and ours. Now, a gang of troublesome goblins have escaped from the ring, intent on causing mischief! Only with the help of fairy children can we send them back to where they came from. But an ancient spell of rhymes which transforms goblins into fairies and fairies into goblins makes this a trickier task than you might think... "The Art of Goblins Drool, Fairies Rule!" showcases the beautiful illustrations from the critically-acclaimed card game, drawn by Mike Maihack. Take a behind-the-scenes look at how these charming characters came into being!
Author Biography:
David Luis Sanhueza is a graduate from the Animation Program at Northeastern University. David's big dream project is Game-O-Gami, his independent game development studio. His first published title is the critically-acclaimed "Goblins Drool, Fairies Rule!" card game. He is currently hard at work developing new games, including "Immortal", "Turtle Panic", and "Final Destinations". In addition to creating games and artwork, David enjoys finding ways to give back to his community... wherever that may be at the time. An American citizen, he has had the honor of living, studying, and teaching in several other countries, including Chile, Brazil, India, Germany, and Japan. Volunteer work often accompanies his travels. He has served with Habitat for Humanity, City Year, Tong-Len, and Volunteer Tibet. David currently lives in sunny Las Vegas, Nevada. Mike Maihack is a graduate from the Columbus College of Art and Design. He spends his time drawing pictures of cats, superheroes, space girls or just about anything else he can think of that might involve rayguns or serving tea. He once organized a Christian comic anthology called "Parable", drew an all-ages web comic called "Cow & Buffalo", and was (or still is) a member of many online collectives such as Lunchbox Funnies, Spacedock 7, and Bristolwhip. He has also contributed art and stories to books like "Jim Henson's The Storyteller", "Cow Boy", "Geeks Girls and Secret Identities", and the award winning "Comic Book Tattoo". Currently though, Mike is hard at work bringing his sci-fi epic, "Cleopatra in Space", to life as part of Scholastic's Graphix line of graphic novels... all while watching not quite as many movies as he used to with his wife, son, and two Siamese cats in the far too hot and humid climate that is Tampa, Florida.
