The Artdog Week of Book Quotes

This is National Library Week. Instead of a Quote of the Week, I decided to dedicate this as the Week of Book Quotes, with help from the marvelous New York illustrator, Simini Blocker.

This painting shows a woman curled up in an upholstered chair with a book and a steaming cup of tea. above her, in the steam from the cup, is the quote from C. S. Lewis, "You can never get a cup of tea large enough or a book long enough to suit me."

Even if you’ve seen Simini’s wonderful illustrated quotes before, I hope you’ll enjoy them again. And if you’re not yet familiar with her work, I offer you the joy of discovery.
