GARRET BOOKS
I began my career in illustration, which grew into painting. But I have always had a hand in publishing.
50 years and 3000 paintings later, my focus is back on illustration plus writing, book design, and publishing.
Our son Garret loved books. He could read words before the age of two, and had a library of hundreds of books
I loved reading to him. Now I am creating books that he would have enjoyed, and I know you will enjoy them too!

And in front of that wall there stands someone who has an opinion"

But it also touches upon some important questions about the role of art in today's world. The mix of colorful paintings, cartoon drawings and hilarious 'personal confessions' found in this book are sure to be enjoyed by both artists and art lovers.
