After nearly two years in the making, a new coffee table book featuring several of my paintings is finally being published. This is a real art book, not one of those fee based vanity publications that nearly all artists get solicited for. The book is due out in a couple of months but is avaiable for pre-order at Amazon. Here's the book cover:

 The image in the upper center is my painting "Trumpet Diptych." Here is the publisher's synopsis of the book:

"Over 500 striking color images display the artwork of 100 contemporary painters from around the world. Their works, in oils, acrylics, and watercolors, range from very traditional pieces representing their mother countries to emerging styles that are new on the world scene. Naïve style painters resurge with a new spark, while others ventured into a more futuristic direction, mixing styles and creating completely unique and innovative canvases. No matter in which direction the artists take their work, each painting is truly exceptional and comes straight from the heart. The painters, from child prodigies to experienced veterans, are arranged alphabetically, allowing readers to view all the work of each artist together. Through this book, readers will travel the world and discover amazing contemporary artists and their important works of art. This book is a must for serious art collectors, enthusiasts, gallery owners, and artists."
