The Purple Book is a luxurious compendium of contemporary illustration that explores fantasy, sensuality, and the erotic imagination. It highlights visual art and the written word as media for representing human desire's relationship with the dream-state, make-believe, and symbolism. The title of the book is inspired by The Yellow Book, the periodical published in the 1890s and initially art directed by Aubrey Beardsley. While the color yellow represented the daringly salacious in the 1890s, today the color purple is synonymous with opulence and sensuality.

The Purple Palace & other Poems is the debut Poetry collection by Artist Shayna Klee. The semi-autobiographical book is divided into two parts and takes place between two countries; Part I, "is a cloud a living thing?", takes place during the Author's tumultueuse teen years with tropical Florida as a backdrop. Part II, "Inside my Shell", explores themes of transformation as the Author creates a new life for herself in Paris, France. The poems in this collection explore the surreal rollercoaster of youth, the performance of identity, being an outsider and the tension between romantic idealism and the dystopic world in which the author finds herself. Her approach to her work as a visual artist is mirrored in her poetry style, which is accompanied by all original illustrations by the Author.

(back cover) CREATIVE TECHNIQUES DRAWING 14 Distinctive Approaches to Drawing with More than 100 Creative Ideas This book will inspire serious students to expand their repertory of techniques and explore fourteen entirely different approaches to drawing that were first pioneered by famous artists of past generations. Students will find step-by-step instructions for each approach. Then they are encouraged to progress beyond simple copying by adapting elements from different approaches to create a language that is distinctively their own. Illustrations of representative drawings derive from original works by distinguished artists as different from each other as the impressionist Edgar Degas, the twentieth-century master Pablo Picasso, the pop artist Robert Rauschenberg, and the abstract expressionist Cy Twombly. Representative works by these and other artists are analyzed and explained in a way that will encourage students to develop exciting new modes of personal expression.
