Whether you're a parent, teacher, librarian, picture book enthusiast or someone who has a favorite childhood book, this is the shop for you! My minimalist posters are inspired by the classics, what's on my bookshelf and more importantly, your favorite books. Each poster includes an illustration, a quote from the book and the author's name. If you don't see a poster for the book you cherish most, just click the "Custom Order" button and I'll create one just for you! Or if you'd like to see an existing poster feature your quote of choice or an alternative color scheme, those customizations can be a made for a small charge of $5. You may wonder why none of the posters explicitly name the title of the book. This ounce of mystery is intentional and highlights the special relationship created between the reader and the story. This way if you have read the story then you’ll easily recognize the book from the poster. SIZE | Posters come in 8"x10", "11x14" or 16"x20". Please note that this size includes the white border around the colored artwork in the photo. For alternative sizes please inquire through the "Custom Order" button. PAPER QUALITY | Matte Photo: Kodak Endure Matte paper has a slight sheen and ultra-fine texture. Fine Art: Giclee prints are made up of a combination of pigmented inks and archival paper. The inkjet printer blends the colored inks as it produces seamless, highly detailed rings of color and detail. Additionally, Giclee prints should not fade for a minimum of eighty years. Please note that because of individual monitor settings, the colors you see may be slightly different from what they actually appear in physical form.
