Discworld related matters continue to keep me busy. Presently I am working hard drawing chapter headings and a front cover for Terry Pratchett’s new book, ‘The Folklore of Discworld’. Take a first glance at my first draft for the jacket below – it has yet to be approved so we shall see whether this version makes it to print… |
Thanks for coming back for more Paul Kidby exclusives from our monthly update, and a big WELCOME if this is your first visit.

The French fantasy gallery, Galerie Daniel Maghen, are publishing an anthology on dragons, with a diverse bunch of great fantasy artists submitting work, such as Tony Di Terlizzi, Drew Struzan, and Jean- Baptiste Monge. They have requested to include ‘Pipe Dreams’ and ‘Varieties of Swamp Dragon’ from my portfolio. The book is due for publication in May 2008. Watch this site for more details on the tome as they emerge.

Finally something you probably won't see on the high street anytime soon - I have just illustrated the .303 Bookworm for the charming folk of the Conservation Department at the Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery. They commissioned the little blighter to grace the cover of a conference document.
