art inspired by - and made from - books

My daughter Esmé just turned five and these are a few pics from her party.  It’s not my artwork, but a creative endeavor which I tackled with pretty much the same passion (and obsessiveness....)!  It was so much fun to do, and I think everyone had a great time.  Thanks go to Pinterest and Etsy for some great inspiration!

Esmé’s birthday party!

One of my new favorite things - collaborations with authors!  I created this thumbprint portrait with Jennifer Gooch Hummer, author of the novel ‘Girl Unmoored’.  It incorporates the headings (in Latin!) of each chapter, along with a selected snippet / passage from that chapter.  It is wildly colorful, was incredibly fun to work on, and now - having read and re-read the snippets in the making of the piece - I am dying to read the book!
