December 25, 2024: Emily J Stegamos And The Mien Bestiary

I'd like to direct your attention to The Mien Bestiary, an art book full of fantastical creatures by Emily J Stegamos which is on Kickstarter right now! Emily is an Atlanta-area artist I've admired for some time, and I was recently fortunate enough to get her to illustrate something for a game that I designed . . . which you will hear about in due time, as it's a piece for an upcoming SJ Games project that isn't quite ready to be revealed!

In the meantime, you can also follow her on Facebook and check out her creatures! An eternal favorite of mine is her possum pigeon trash gryphon (which, incidentally, is available as a sticker in her Etsy store right now).

The bestiary project runs through the 27th, and I'd love to see it hit the full-color stretch goal, so go show her some support if you're a fan of imaginative, beautifully illustrated beasties!
