We've assembled a collection of unique books in our shop - several related to
the artists that we've shown on our gallery walls over the past 38 years, in
addition to books that provide just good reading - many published by Tristan
Publishing, books with a message. Most recently we've added some fun books
for our dog enthusiasts!
We also have a separate section for our diverse selection of Christmas Related
books and another section for our Wisconsin - Images of America series.

Harper Ever After
The Early Work
Essay by Sara Caswell-Pearce. Introduction
and commentary by Brett Harper.
Harper Ever After presents paintings and
prints from both artists, from their early
art school days until 1960, when Charley
created Cardinal, now one of his best-known
images. The artists command of a wide range
of styles from realism to abstraction to
cubismis not only impressive, it informs the
path each took to arrive at their individual
techniques. The subjects they chose to depict
are just as diverse. Charleys World War II
scenes, portraits, and cartoons created while
serving in Europe as a private first class
are especially poignant.
Brett Harper provides a biographical
introduction that follows his parents from
art school to commercial and fine art
success, and his commentary on specific
artworks provides valuable insight. Art
critic Sara Caswell-Pearces essay focuses on
the development of the Harper's artistic
prowess, while Chip Doyle, a family friend,
tells his story of discovering long-lost
early works.
Harper Ever After presents great talent in
its formative years. Longtime Harper fans and
collectors will appreciate never-before-seen
artwork and come away with a new appreciation
of the Harpers mature work, post-1960.

A Tower of Giraffes
Book by Anna Wright
A drove of pigs, a romp of otters, an ostentation of
peacocks, and a tower of giraffes... This clever book
introduces young readers to some of the words we use to
refer to animals in a group. The ink, watercolor, and fabric
collage art is brightly colored and uniquely sets this fun
book apart from the crowd. Each page presents information
about an animal and its group behavior, such as how geese
fly in a V-shape and honk to encourage the leaders, and that
sometimes tens of thousand of flamingos meet up in one
location.
Young readers will have a great time and create a wellspring
of new vocabulary words.
