If you just happen to be driving along the back roads
of North Texas there's a good chance you might be lucky enough to find
an enchanted kingdom called Brae Edenhall. Before coming upon this four
story 'castle' with an observatory on the top floor, you would have passed
by pastures with longhorn cattle, working quarter horses and even buffalo.
However, Brae Edenhall's inhabitants are much smaller - this is the home
of Real & Muff Musgrave and their fun loving, magical Pocket Dragons.
Since childhood, Real has been fascinated with dragons.
He began drawing them when he was five years old. When he opened a gallery
in 1974 to sell and display his fantasy artwork, he began to fully develop
his most successful creation. He did that with the help of his partner
and wife, Muff, and an unlikely source of inspiration - their dog, Flower.
Real has constantly been inspired in this wonderful setting,
to create a world of wonder for us all. The models that inspire him are
all at hand, from his wonderful wife Muff, his creative muse and business
partner, to the many Musgrave animals with all their various personalities.
"Pocket Dragons" have a long history, with the first one
being a print made from sketches originally done on a pocket sized drawing
pad. In 1974 Real opened a small gallery and commercial art studio from
which he sold his fantasy drawings (many of which included his beloved
dragons). But even before this, when Real was five years old, he drew dragons.
The development of Real's work from these first dragons, through life-sized
sculptures of dragons to Pocket Dragons as we know and love back over.
Real's gentle humor is exhibited not only through his
sculptures, but also through his drawings, etchings and paintings which
have been widely shown in museums and galleries. For 14 years Real served
as the official artist of the Texas Renaissance Festival, and he has been
a guest artist at Science Fiction and Fantasy Conventions.
Since 7989, Real has been sculpting Pocket Dragons and
their friends for Collectible World Studios - and in the last 11 years
so many exciting things have happened for "The Whimsical World of Pocket
Dragons". So much so that the family of Pocket Dragon lovers has spread
and now spans the globe. So count yourselves among us....and let us introduce
our real "stars". Welcome to The Whimsical World Of Pocket Dragons
