<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>In her twenty-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. <p/> <b>The Art of Emily Volume 2: Odds and Ends</b> is the second-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 silk-screened vinyl 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. This volume reads and views like a scrapbook history of art and designs which have created the world of Emily the Strange. <p/> * The world's affection for Emily the Strange can be seen at futuristic shopping malls in Tokyo, in Dutch Halloween fanzines, on the walls of metal clubs in Germany, and throughout the United States!<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>ROB REGER is the founder, creative director, and president of Cosmic Debris - a design house based in the San Francisco Bay Area.
