Majestika: The Art of Monte Michael Moore

An all-new collection of the very best works by award-wining fantasy artist Monte Moore, Majestika focuses mainly on his celebrated erotic paintings but goes beyond these to show the full scope of his talent. Moore was one of only 4 artists chosen (out of more than 100 worldwide) to create a limited edition pin-up print for the Uniquely Playmates line of collectibles for Playboy. The images of lusciously proportioned, sensual women showcased here reveal exactly in the best fantasy tradition, they pose provocatively in skimpy clothing and appear in the guise of angels, mermaids, and warrior maidens. But other, different paintings present monsters, a menagerie of magical creatures, and an illustrated story titled “Bloodlines.” Moore himself writes the introduction and explains his methodology and marketing strategies.
