Limited edition prints of some of my work are now available at anthropologie online. The prints originally appeared in a limited edition book of paintings and text that I made for the 2015 LA Art Book Fair; each portrait is accompanied by a typewritten excerpt from the author's work that I found particularly meaningful and resonant. Many thanks for making this happen zoe bios creative and anthropologie.
