This is an illustration I recently did for The Texas Observer. It is the header of the Holiday Book section, offering gift book ideas. They wanted to have an image incorporating books into common holiday decoration. After a few sketches I came up with this idea. Very simple: A snowflake, book, and christmas ornament. The juxtaposition of the book image with two very Christmasy images creates a sense that books are part of the holidays. Collage and acrylic paint.
