The Whimsical World of

Pocket Dragons & Friends

The Background

One might ask if Pocket Dragons really exist and where they came from. Well, the Pocket Dragons sprung to life from the mind of a man named Real Musgrave. He began drawing dragons when he was 5 years old. The fascination he had with these magical beings continued throughout High School, University, and into his career as a professional artist.

In 1974 Real started a small gallery/commercial art studio where he sold his fantasy drawings, many of which prominently featured his beloved dragons. It was during this period that he produced a print titled "Pocket Dragon" and began to fully develop these little creatures.

Real's work shows a gentle humour which is uniquely his own. Real Musgrave's drawings, etchings, and paintings have been exhibited in numerous museums and galleries. He is a frequent featured guest at Science Fiction and Fantasy Conventions. He served as the official artist of Texas Renaissance Festival for 14 years. His wife Muff, his creative muse and business partner, and the assorted Musgrave animals provide models and inspiration for the whimsical inhabitants of his world of wonder. In 1989 Real began to sculpt the Pocket Dragons and their friends for Collectible World Studios and thus "The Whimsical World of Pocket Dragons" was born.

A drive through the back roads of North Texas takes one by pastures of longhorn cattle, working quarter horses and even the occasional buffalo. But venture a little further into a serene valley of oak woods and you will come upon a enchanted kingdom called Brae Edenhall. This four storey contemporary "castle" is the home of Real and Muff Musgrave and their magical, mischievous Pocket Dragons.

In this lovely setting Real creates the whimsical inhabitants of his world of wonder. His wife Muff, his creative muse and business partner, and the assorted Musgrave animals provide models and inspiration.
