Books with a strong Original Artwork content

[Terry Doyle]

Thought it might be fun to have a focus on various books that feature a strong OA content (please feel free to contribute).

 

First up is 'Flesh & Steel, the Art of Russ Heath'.

 

 

To complement an exhibition of Russ's original artwork, that took place in the Spanish city of Palma, in 2013, a 340 page book was published that featured a wealth of artwork by the American great. As I contributed to the event, Paris Fred (Frederic Manzano), sent me a complimentary copy. Although the text is in Spanish, an English translation also features.

 

Photographs of various pages to follow . . .

Table of contents, with a reproduction of my Astonishing # 8 cover (original twice-up cover original is featured in the photograph to give you an idea of the book's size).

The Battle Action # 3 cover was on loan by me to the exhibition. Paris Fred later found me a buyer for the OA.

A Lichtenstein is featured, along with the various comic-book panels that (ahem) 'inspired' his finished painting . . .
