2010 / 8"x10" / gouache & ink on paper

SL commissioned this painting of her husband CG's favorite books for his 40th birthday. Another example of people having distinct color schemes. This one is more muted and earthy than most, which balances nicely with the detailed woman and man.

In the Toronto Star George's Ideal Bookshelf was used as an illustration for an article in the Toronto Star last Saturday, August 28th. It's huge on the page, but I'm honored. The article, by Ryan Bigge, is about eReaders replacing books in the home, so that you can't judge people by their shelves anymore.
