October Fields

by Erin S. Wells (Illustrator), Scott Thomas (Introduction)

SST's October Fields assembles the art of Erin S. Wells from the start of her career to the present, including book and magazine illustrations, as well as personal works. Erin prefers to use traditional media—graphite, watercolour, and oil paint: this book features artwork rooted in the earthy, the mysterious dark, the dreamworld—it's Autumn work, smelling of smoke and following secret, twisted pathways.

Scott Thomas, acclaimed author of Urn and Willow, Quill and Candle, Midnight in New England, and Westermead, among other works, has written the insightful introduction.

I love Erin's art, especially the pieces featured in the "Personal Works" section. Haunting and beautiful. And, bonus day, my copy of this limited edition is number 1 of 100.

Full disclosure: I have known Erin since elementary school.
