Hi All,
I have a new book coming out October 25th. It's my first book for a general audience (I usually write academic stuff). It's called Scoundrels, Cads, and Other Great Artists, and it's about the bad boys in the history of art.
It's written for people who don't know much about art but might be interested in it. It lays out the lives of nine great artists who were pretty despicable individuals. There are 100 color reproductions of the works that they did, along with amusing retellings of their lives and times. I had a huge amount of fun writing it, and I think a number of you would like it.
Here is the amazon link:
Amazon product ASIN B08GJ8D15B
And below (I hope) is a page from the book to give you an idea about it. It's not a perfect reproduction (as I'm not brilliant at such stuff), but it'll give you a flavor of the book.
I'd love to be able to do signed copies, but living in NZ makes that a very long and expensive process. In lieu of that, the next best thing I could do is mail you a signed "ex libris" label, which is a thing people used to glue or stick into their books on the inside cover. I'm going to make a design on that and would be happy to get one mailed to you if you buy the book!
Thanks much for reading this.
