Carbon 3

Collecting over sixty of the most recent artworks by Mark Schultz, acclaimed creator of Xenozoic.

In this entirely new collection of the Mark Schultz’s works - most of which have not been previously published - the Xenozoic world takes centre stage. Schultz presents preliminary drawings and concept designs from his upcoming Xenozoic graphic novel, placed in context with an introductory text. Carbon 3 also features images from Schultz’s Storms at Sea and his depictions of myth and pulp adventure.

Beyond his stunning use of brush, ink and graphite, there are examples of Schultz’s continuing development as a painter working in watercolour and gouache.

Carbon 3 represents two years of challenges and development in Schultz’s work, as he continues to strive to better realise and communicate his vision of human engagement with a largely unknown and always exciting universe. The works found inside this volume are all important markers along his road toward that goal.
