Fall
That's me. That has always been me. Even as a little girl I saw the outside person with brown hair as who I was outside of the book. I'd read 15 hours a day so I could see me from the inside of the book.
Invitation
Morning
Into Silence
Calla Lilies
As a life-long, dyed-in-the-wool book lover, I am smitten by these pictures -- so original, so imaginative, so inspiring. I especially love "Fall," where the elderly woman sees her shadow as her younger self. Wonderful! You're really good! Do these exist as prints that I could buy?
Hey Deborah, really don't know about it, but there is the link of artist's website above in description, you may find more info about paper prints there !!!

Wow! I love these. "Invitation" is my favorite. It really captures that first glimpse into the book.
These are absolutely stunning and beautiful and book-ish and I truly love them.
These pictures remind me a lot of the work of illustrator Quint Buchholz. The style, the book-themed subjects, even the technique, though Buchholz works usually not digitally. http://www.quintbuchholz.de/
These drawings have such a magical, dreamlike atmosphere to them- they're as absorbing as the pages of a captivating book :)
