The Ideal Bookshelf 12/28/2010

The Ideal Bookshelf is a nifty little creation by Jane Mount from New York, NY.  

My favorite is tied between the Harry Potter book set and the cookbook set.  Ms. Mount paints these booksets for clients as gifts and I think these are beautiful and very thoughtful!

This Brooklynn-based artist certainly has a way with her medium, which I believe is watercolor.  With such vibrant colors, these images literally leap off of the stark white backgrounds.  I certainly love Marion's work.  Seeing images like these make me wish that my hands were more fluid and could create art like this.  However, my nimble fingers were made to work speedily and type at 100+ WPM. Haha!
