Reviews
"Spectrum is my 'one-stop shopping' to see what's happening in the fantasy art world this year. It is exciting to see more and more diversity, both of the artists as well as in their styles.As a minority female working outside the mainstream style, this is very encouraging. Also as an art-school educator where the student body is becoming more diverse each year, I see that it's very inspiring for them. They aim to see their works in the annual not too far in the future, and so do I." --Yuko Shimizu "Through its celebration of imaginative art, Spectrum has brought about a flowering of artistic ability and understanding across the world. It has helped to foster a pursuit of excellence in art, and the world is a brighter place for it." --Annie Stegg Gerard "Each year I cannot wait to open the new Spectrum because I know that, inside, thousands of artists have pushed themselves to do the greatest work they've ever done in their lives for the book. I know that what I am about to see will move me, inspire me, terrify me and challenge me." --Justin Gerard "Opening up a Spectrum annual is like stepping into a luxurious gallery. The experience will excite the minds of art enthusiasts, inspire the students of visual storytelling and keep the seasoned illustrators on their toes." --Gary Gianni "Spectrum is a gloriously illustrated, lavishly produced, 300-page travel brochure for all the places the human imagination can take us." --Scott Gustafson "Spectrum is like a city of implied worlds. Open any volume again, and you may find some secret door you had not noticed the last time--or the last several dozen times--you ventured there. I experience it as a means of transportation." --Forest Rogers "With a hand to pull me into other worlds, a hand to push me to better myself and a hand to hold while walking the artists' road, Spectrum is my three-armed freak-of-a-friend." --Dug Stanat
