HIT THE BOOKS
“There is no friend as loyal as a book.” Ernest Hemingway
“Books are a unique portable magic.”
Stephen King
My dad was an avid reader. There was a period of time, where he would write up a “book report,” along with a watercolor sketch of each “author,” after completing a book. My dad read hundreds (thousands!) of books. (And then later in life, listened to books on audible). He painted hundreds of these mini portraits of the “writers.” These writers are the stars of this exhibit.
With “back to school” season in full swing, this exhibit’s theme is ‘Hit the Books!’
We have designed, high-end “posters” of the writers, (rather than limited prints.) I initially came up with the concept for my dad, as he has so many of these little portraits. The portrait images are small and look amazing grouped together. I designed these posters with Lizzie and Tony (of Berkeley Giclee) ‘s help. Printed on high-quality archival stock paper (more poster quality than the heavy rag cotton watercolor prints,) with archival ink, they are more like posters and a tad larger, 16x20.
These posters would make an incredible addition to anyone’s home library, living room, den or office. Buy one, or a grouping; they make great gifts. I love them and my dad would be absolutely thrilled with the result!
Carrying with the theme, we have tote bags. These canvas totes are durable and just the right size and weight, cotton twill in natural, with our cute logo! These are so great for carrying your books or groceries and also make a perfect gym or work bag.
“Fill your house with stacks of books, in all the crannies and all the nooks.”
- Dr. Seuss
