And with the texts come ...

Poetry. That's the plan, to include a poem with each painting and accompanying text. At least, with a lot of them. We'll have to see how it works out.

Texts update

The next version of the People of the Book site is going to have text about each painting. Each of the paintings will have their own page with a good deal of information about the painting. The text is being written by a range of writers chosen by the artist.

Of course, there's quite a lot to write. There are 37 paintings, so we need 37 texts written. It is taking time, but I hope it will be worth it in the end.

And of course . . .

Don't forget to check out the calendar!

Next upgrade to the People of the Book site

You may wonder what is going on with the People of Book site?

Well, behind the scenes it is being updated, and should get a make over in a few weeks.

The reason it takes a long time is that there is quite a lot of new material going up too. Of course, all of this needs to be written, and that is what takes the real time.

So, don't worry, there will be more stuff coming about the paintings, how they were made and the inspiration behind them. You just need to be patient.

About the calendar

I thought I'd add a few comments about the new 2007 calendar. When I ordered mine it took just over two weeks to arrive. The site accepts card payment and is very secure indeed. The ordering process is simple and easy to follow. I hope you find it ok.
