POP Treat: Every Book Should Have Pictures

Not only does the artist and I share a birthday, July 24th, we also share a love for art! John Clark is an awesome contemporary portraiture artist, using old mystery novel pages as his canvas and sharpies as his brush.






















As a lover of fine art and literature I had to collect a few of his original pieces that are inspired by film noir. I love the way he leaves a phrase untouched in each piece; thus, becoming the title of the amazing artwork. Check out the collection I commissioned by John Clark in 2006. It features African American women from the 1920s-1970s. Can you name the women I chose?
