Sadistic Magician: Jim Mahfood Sketchbook Vol. 1 collects the best of artist Jim Mahfood's eclectic sketchbook archives from the last five years into one classy volume. Mahfood's sketchbooks serve as an experimental place for the artist to really cut loose and try new things. The end results tend to be even more dynamic, thrilling, and psychedelic than his already super stylized comics and illustration work. The sketchbook art book offers a unique look at process, trial and error, problem solving, and eventual victory over the odds and a glorious celebration of visual mayhem.
