"Alan and I [Brian Froud] soaked in the spirit of the land, the folkore surrounding us and created the book FAERIES.  With that book I began to do more than illustrate other people's words: I began to record my own vision of the world, and stories without words, in pencil lines and paint..."--Brian Froud
