Book excerpt: Norman Greenstein, also known to friends, family, and fans as, 'The Parkinson's Painter', is an American artist, writer, and public speaker who has led a life of service, experience and inspiration on his way to fulfilling his lifelong dream of becoming an artist. Throughout Norman's career as veteran of the USAF, a social worker, and as a fundraiser to help Jewish communities in need, Norman always looked to benefit society and family above himself. Having been told that he would never make it as an artist throughout his whole life, and having dedicated his life to supporting his family, Norman flirted with his passion for art over the years, only to have reality and responsibilities come crashing down over and over again on his hopes of following a path of creativity and expression. When Norman was diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease in 2008, and then forced into early retirement in 2012 at the age of 69, he managed to find the positive side of his affliction and turned his tragedy into the opportunity to finally live out his life's ambition and embark on his second career as a painter.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a world behind the canvas. Past the flat façade and the crackling paint is a realm where art lives, breathes, creates, and destroys. Claudia Miravista loves art but only sees what is on the surface-until the Dutch boy Pim appears in the painting in her room. Pim has been trapped in the world behind the canvas for centuries by a power-hungry witch, and he now believes that Claudia is his only hope for escape. Fueled by the help of an ancient artist and some microwaveable magic, Claudia enters the wondrous and terrifying world behind the canvas, intent on destroying the witch's most cherished possession and setting her new friend free. But in that world nothing is quite as it appears on the surface. Not even friendship.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Bailee Abbott’s second book in the Paint by Murder mysteries, Chloe and Izzie are taking their paint party business on the road—with murder as the first stop! Chloe Abbington and her sister, Izzie, are enjoying huge success running Paint with a View, their paint party business in the tranquil western New York lakeside town of Whisper Cove. Now, their aunt Constance—president of the local chapter of the Chautauqua Sisterhood—has hooked them up with a gig hosting a Halloween painting party. The guests will be painting a local ghost legend, the Lady of Chautauqua Lake, who died a hundred years earlier and rises from the lake every October to haunt anyone who dares venture out on All Hallows’ Eve. The event seems to be going off without a hitch, until Chloe overhears an argument between Constance and Viola Finnwinkle, the Sisterhood director, about the fate of the local chapter. Both women leave and the sisters finish their painting. But the next morning, Viola’s body is discovered floating face down near the town ferryboat dock, her long red hair spread around her. Eerily, the image is an exact replica of a painting Chloe and Izzie had discovered at the event the night before. What’s more, the police find Constance’s purple knit hat lying on the ground near the crime scene. Constance pleads innocence, saying the hat mysteriously went missing during the event. Frantic that she might be charged with murder, she begs Chloe and Izzie to help her. The sisters believe their aunt is innocent, but if so, who’s the real killer—and when will the next victim turn up?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the late 1790s, British Prime Minister William Pitt created a crisis of representation when he pressured the British Parliament to relieve the Bank of England from its obligations to convert paper notes into coin. Paper quickly became associated with a form of limitless reproduction that threatened to dematerialize solid bodies and replace them with insubstantial shadows. Media Critique in the Age of Gillray centres on printed images and graphic satires which view paper as the foundation for the contemporary world. Through a focus on printed, visual imagery from practitioners such as James Gillray, William Blake, John Thomas Smith, and Henry Fuseli, the book addresses challenges posed by reproductive technologies to traditional concepts of subjective agency. Joseph Monteyne shows that the late eighteenth-century paper age’s baseless fabric set the stage for contemporary digital media’s weightless production. Engagingly written and abundantly illustrated, Media Critique in the Age of Gillray highlights the fact that graphic culture has been overlooked as an important sphere for the production of critical and self-reflective discourses around media transformations and the visual turn in British culture.

Book excerpt: Before I begin this story, just remember when you were a little boy or girl and how vivid your imaginations were. When you read a book you can close your eyes and somehow be in the story, and see the scenery, and characters come alive. In the story you are about to read a little boy by the name of Victor will bring his imagination to life on canvas that will have fatal consequences. Even though Victor’s life was pretty messed up because of his alcoholic parents, he never gave up on his dream of becoming a famous painter. Victor being an only child, would think his parents would spoil him rotten, but since the bottle was the only thing they cared about, Victor had to take a back seat and figure out life on his own. As Victor’s passion for painting grew each day it was getting easier to drown out his sorrows of not having a stable family life he could be proud of. Anytime Victor would get excited about a painting he worked so hard on, he would run downstairs to show it off to his parent but all he got in the end was heartache. Finally, he said after painting what he thought was his best yet he said “Maybe this time they’ll be proud of me but the only reaction he got when he showed it to them was laughter and belittlement by telling him his painting was absolute junk. His father said, “A dog could paint better than that!” Then his father and mother opened their cans of beer and threw beer all over his painting as they both were laughing hysterically. Victor started crying and shouted out loud “I wish you both were dead!” His parents just laughed even more, and popped another can of beer, chased it down, and then threw their empty cans of beer at him hitting him in the back of the head. Victor ran upstairs to his room crying and angry as hell. He wiped the tears from his face and decided to get out of the house for a while so he could cool down, and get a breath of fresh air. Victor’s parents never took him outside to see the world so he could associate with kids his age, and if that would happen it would probably be kind of frightening to him but at the same time exciting. Victor got on his jacket and marched out of his room down the stairs and as he was heading towards the front door his father said “Where are you going Picasso?” as he laughed and guzzled down another beer. “I’m going out for a while!” and slammed the door behind him. His father got up from the kitchen table with beer in hand then opened the door and yelled out for Victor to get back in the house, but Victor didn’t turn around and just kept on walking. His father yelled out again “Hey Picasso! when you get back home you’re going to get the whipping of your life!” Victor’s mother raised her head off the kitchen table and said to her husband, “Just let him go, and get back in here, and help me finish off the rest of this case of beer, and then we can go upstairs and fool around.” “Sounds good to me and besides he’s just a thorn in our side, and wish we never had a child to have to spend our beer money on.”
