Fantastic Beasts

Artist Bailey Henderson creates intricate sculptures depicting fantastic beasts that have been portrayed in medieval maps. Each creature is stylized and made to detail the original image accurately. The texture found in her sculptures mirror the lines in an illustration, like the mythological beings actually jumped right off the pages of a medieval map.
These monstrous creatures are often hybrids of two real animals, such as a whale and an eagle, or a dragon and an iguana.
