From the award-winning artist, learn to see and shape the world in a way you never before imagined. An award-winning fantasy artist and the creator of Dinotopia, James Gurney instructs and inspires in Imaginative Realism: How to Paint What Doesn't Exist. Renowned for his uncanny ability to incorporate amazing detail and imagination into stunningly realistic fantasy settings, James Gurney teaches budding artists and fans of fantasy art step-by-step the techniques that won him worldwide critical acclaim. This groundbreaking work examines the practical methods for creating believable pictures of imaginary subjects, such as dinosaurs, ancient Romans, alien creatures, and distant worlds. Beginning with a survey of imaginative paintings from the Renaissance to the golden Age of American illustration, the book then goes on to explain not just techniques like sketching and composition, but also the fundamentals of believable world building including archaeology, architecture, anatomy for creatures and aliens, and fantastic engineering. It concludes with details and valuable advice on careers in fantasy illustration, including video game and film concept art and toy design. More than an instruction book, this is the ultimate reference for fans of science fiction and fantasy illustration. Gurney's Imaginative Realism is a gold mine for artists who want to create images that sing with authority and delight the viewer with rich otherworldly visuals. --Erik Tiemens, concept artist, Star Wars: Episodes II and III Imaginative Realism is an indispensable, flawless reference for vision makers in any discipline to create their own imaginative realms. --Frank M.

Very NICE quality and worth the money!
Color: White, Size: 8 Panel
Ive gotten several folding privacy screens. This HALLYBEE one is a great 8 panel and the divider is TALLER than some other ones that I have gotten. Also the hinges fold in BOTH directions so you can fold the panels however you want. Some other screens only fold open in one direction like a Z. I thought that being a paper screen material that it would be less sturdy or too light, no this is not the case. The paper screen material looks fantastic and has lasted LONGER looking BETTER than the synthetic canvas webbing belt/leash fabric material on other screens - I just had to throw one of those out, but this one has been going strong and looks brand new still. Also this frame is taller and heavier and more sturdy. This screen is worth the money. I've gotten cheaper screens and they just fall apart so fast. Also because this divider is taller and wider, it is alot more privacy.

Good room divider
Color: Dark Mocha, Size: 6 Panel
This room divider is sturdy and looks good. There were a few areas where the material was cracked, but overall it does its job. It’s not heavy and can easily be folded up and moved to a new area as needed.

Great Quality and Very Tall
Color: Dark Mocha, Size: 8 Panel
This is absolutely excellent! It’s very tall and you can’t see over it and I love it. It’s 6ft tall. It’s of very good quality material and looks perfect as a room divider between roommates in a shared space. I’d buy this again for sure if needed.
