I'm definitely super-stoked about the whole thing. We're still in the very beginning stages of design, as my brother's in charge of that department right now (he's the graphic designer). But here's a little peak at a mock-up that we're going to be using as a launch pad:



So far, the goal will be to have at least one painting on each page, with the panoramics taking up two. I'll have narratives for all of them, as well as the title, size, year completed, and if he/she wishes, the name of the collector who owns the piece. The book will have at least 50 images, and we're definitely hoping for more, especially since ideally, we'd love it to be an 11" x 17" coffee table thing (!!!).

Though in the end, I guess we'll see what's what when we're further along in the process.

Color me excited!

Awesome!
Graig, thanks for including my Vandy. I'm stoked!

You're welcome, Scott! I can't think of having the book WITHOUT the Vandy.

Graig,
Count me in as well for a copy of your book. Your work continues to amaze me. I love to see your latest work that you post on twitter and share it often with my friends. The last friend said "that's a painting?" Please do list me as the collector of 1939 Gehrig pose if it makes the book.
Jamie

Thanks so much for the kind words, guys.

Mark, it's definitely in contention. Hopefully it'll find it's way in there one way or another. I'm definitely happy that Vandy will make the cut - I still think it's such a cool image.

Jamie, thanks for the permission. Whenever we figure out exactly which ones we want to use, I'm sure we'll be sending out a lot of emails about the whole venture, asking for permission and what-not, and detailing what the whole process entails. Or at least, I would imagine that's what will happen.

But regardless, I am thrilled you still like your painting. And thank you for continuing to share my work with your friends!

Graig
