Publisher's Synopsis
Beauties, beasties, firebirds, princes ... Over the past twenty years, Neale Osborne's distinctive pictures have featured on posters, CDs, and dinnerware; in books, exhibitions, concert programs, and numerous periodicals. Collecting over a hundred eclectic and decorative designs, 'Sweet Art' is the first published retrospective of his graphic work - with images from myth, music and theater - plus, of course, children's literature, with illustrations inspired by the 'Alice' and 'Oz' books, along with a delicious selection from the artist's own sweet-themed 'Lydia' novels. With pages of accompanying notes about the pictures, this elegant black-and-white paperback comes in a generous 8.5" x 11" format.
