LOVE SKIT (YAOI) - Diamond Book Distributors

THE ART OF EMILY THE STRANGE
In her fifteen-plus years in existence, oddballs, outcasts, and art freaks the world over have grown
to know and love a strange young girl named Emily. With roots in the punk-rock art scene of
Santa Cruz skate culture and an early appeal to European trend spotters, the iconic image of Emily
and her philosophy of devout individualism have become deeply rooted in global culture.
The Art of Emily Volume One is the first-ever collection of images showing the wide and inspired
range of artistic styles and mediums that have been used to create the world of Emily the Strange.
From skateboard stickers to custom rock-and-roll album art, large-scale psychedelic paintings, and
insanely intricate Mongolian paper cutting, the fantastic and artful imaginings of Rob Reger, Buzz
Parker, and a staggeringly talented array of collaborators will give insight and inspiration to any
Emily fan.
KEY SELLING POINTS:
