Follow Me in
Author: Katriona Chapman

Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Kat had no responsibilities and nothing to tie her down. But she had graduated university with no plans. She was an artist who hadn't drawn in five years. She was lost. What's more, she'd been avoiding admitting to herself something that all of those around her knew; that her boyfriend, Richard, had some serious problems with alcohol. Looking for a fresh start, the two of them quit their jobs and embarked on a journey to Mexico for what what they expected to be an adventure of a lifetime. It led to experiences that changed both of their lives and to Kat rediscovering a love of art, a lifelong attachment to Mexico and the strength to move on. The debut graphic novel from Katriona Chapman is a beautifully illustrated recounting of a trip she made around Mexico back in 2003, interspersed with pages of her sketchbook from that time, as well as explorations of the cultural and bio-diversity of Mexico and its fascinating history. Follow Me In is part memoir, part coming of age story, part love letter to Mexico and is undoubtedly a major work from one of the best illustrators and comics makers in the UK.

The Art of Reginald Heade
Author: Stephen James Walker
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781845831165
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 320
Book Description
Reginald Heade is renowned amongst vintage paperback fans and collectors as the pre- eminent British pulp fiction cover artist of the 1940s and 1950s. His beautifully-realised, erotically-charged depictions of a parade of sexy, scantily-clad young virgins and vixens - the so-called 'Heade women', for some of whom he is rumoured to have used local ladies-of-the-night as models - are near-legendary amongst lovers of classic pin-up art; and the original books on which they appeared are now highly-sought-after rarities - in some cases, only a handful of copies are known still to survive. In the lavishly-illustrated The Art of Reginald Heade, packed with hundreds of superb colour and black-and-white images, noted researcher Stephen James Walker presents the most comprehensive overview ever published of Heade's life and work. This encompasses not only all of his iconic paintings for the famous Hank Janson range, but also dozens of other outstanding pulp fiction covers, plus his less-well-known but equally exceptional work for adult hardback fiction dustjackets, children's books and periodicals, and even the pieces he produced at the end of his life under the alternative name Cy Webb. The Art of Reginald Heade is a glorious celebration of the artist's work, and an absolutely essential addition to the bookshelves of anyone with a taste for classic pin-up and book cover artwork. This deluxe special edition of the book is extensively revised and greatly expanded. With almost double the page-count of the standard edition, it features over 400 additional, ultra-rare Heade artwork images, and presents many others in larger size than before.
