I painted these for SS to give to her mom for Christmas. I really love the colors and the mix of design styles (photos, graphic prints, illustrations) of the spines.

SS commissioned this painting for her father as a birthday present. She's currently 3,000 miles away from him, so I photographed versions of the books he loves (based on the list she sent) at the bookstore (thanks B&N!) and combined them. I think the colors are amazing.

DG commissioned this painting for his brother NG's wedding present. A great example of how everybody seems to have their own book color scheme.
