Color Book is a story about the possibility of changing how we perceive ourselves...in other words it is a birthday story. Friends have asked where they can find a copy after looking at one of my limited first edition. There is more information about Color Book at http://www.ecolorbook.com. Now with online printing services I am able to make Color Book available in hardbound and as an ebook at www.lulu.com.
The inception of Color Book began thirty years ago through the looking glass of humor dosed with salt. I was watching situations within and around me that were easiest on our self image to depict as animated characters - we can choose whether or not to identify with these cartoon like characters and any similarities that may exist between them and us. The idea for Color Book comes from how a few of us (not you out there of course) unconsciously choose to fill what represents our personality, just as a child might haphazardly fill color with crayons into a prized book. A quotation from Morris Graves' introduction to Color Book concisely describes my intent for this visual story; "the search of physics says look farther and farther out - the search of metaphysics says search farther and farther in - the hourglass of searching for the answer of from where?, why?, and where to?" Life can start to tug with quite a tangle until a gale wind knocks us down or we turn around and see with a new kind of eye...life's infinite possibilities.
