Description
"The best moments in reading are when you come across something - a thought, a feeling, a way of looking at things - which you had thought special and particular to you. And now, here it is, set down by someone else, a person you have never met, someone - even - who is long dead. And it is as if a hand has come out, and taken yours"β Alan Bennett The History Boys.
Collage

Hi! I write for a magazine called Neon Gods and I'm wondering if I could use your art as the featured image to one of my monthly book review posts? The magazine "for creatives, by creatives," so I'd certainly like to highlight some good art this way. I would certainly link back to your DeviantArt page in my post.Β
Here's a link to January's post (I didn't use a DeviantArtist for it) if you're interested:Β neongods.com/literature/januarβ¦

To say you do good work is an understatement! You are one creative person. Keep this going. I love your spy series, though this is to me, the most compelling!

I love it too - made it to sell as a greeting card, but haven't been able to part with it, yet.

I keep a journal of passages that speak to me as I read them in books. Actually, two journals now. The lady's intensity reminds me of you.

Love the way this was done. I love how you used the text and prints as a part of the piece. Well done.
