These are the books that have most changed me, that helped make me who I am today. At least if I pick right now. Mostly they are about adventure journeys and talking animals. I've always been ridiculously attached to the idea that there's more to reality than we can perceive, and more worlds out there than we realize.

Model Bookshelves

For the Curiosity Shoppe show I did a little "Model Bookshelf" series. They are all "life-size", same as the spines of the real books, but each one is just a facade that can stand on its own. They are amalgamations of favorites from various people, grouped by genre.
