The Dark Art Of Tony Mauro
                                             (2003 - SQP (Sal Quartuccio Publications) )  

     This book seems to be the same as Europe's ART PREMIERE # 8-TONY MAURO.  Mauro's art collected here is mostly taking images coming from his photoshoots and modifying the models into 'creatures of the night' and creating new atmospheric backgrounds incorporating both digital & traditional techniques.  (There's one page that shows four steps on a base-photo, building up to the final art-piece).  The book is 48 pages, with an impressive 30 of them displaying the art in full-bleed fashion, eight more featured large reproductions, then four more pages with multiple images showing his many posters and also thumbnails of the displays, providing title, creation year and models' names.  One page features short anecdotes from the artist about 13 of the pieces (this, and the introductory pages, are additionally presented in German).
