REMEMBERING TOMIE on December 12, 2020

Today is the Feast Day for Our Lady of Guadalupe. Tomie was particularly fond of the story and the image.

His book, THE LADY OF GUADALUPE, is currently only available in eBook format, but we’re hopeful it will be back in print someday as a hardcover book.

Tomie made this Our Lady with Super Sculpey and acrylic paint in 2013. (Bob)

An Orderly Transition would be nice, too.

REMEMBERING TOMIE on December 11, 2020

TOMIE DEPAOLA, HIS ART & HIS STORIES, by Barbara Elleman, was published in 1999. A revised and updated edition will be published in March as THE WORLDS OF TOMIE DEPAOLA.

KIRKUS REVIEWS just published a Starred Review.

“Playing to her strengths as an unexcelled observer and describer of picture-book art, she captures both visual and emotional ebbs and flows in dozens of works… Even devoted fans will come away knowing and liking dePaola more. An essential guide to the legacy of a well- and deservedly loved artist.” (Bob)

Pray for Peace, Justice, and Equality

An Orderly Transition would be nice, too.
