Kest Original ILLUSTRATIONS Available

Jane Frank, owner of the online gallery Wow-Art, is presenting my work on her site.

Currently for sale are original oil paintings from a few of the 30 books I’ve illustrated:

Creepy Creatures, Do They Scare You? If you like wonderfully strange and slightly frightening animals, then you’ll love the work from this children’s book published by Charlesbridge in 1992. Oil paintings on gessoed heavy paper.

Butterflies and Moths from 1993 by the venerable Western Publishing Co. If you love realistic and colorful science illustrations of butterflies, there are many paintings to choose from. Oil paintings on paper.

The Peregrine’s Journey: A Story of Migration by Web of Life publishing. These works were painted on canvas and published in 2000. Oil paintings on unstretched canvas.

Amphibians, Water-To-Land Animals, Picture-Window Books 2009. Lots of frogs, toads, and the ever-fascinating caecilians. Oils on gessoed paper.

Llewellyn Publishing Co’s 2013 Astrological Calendar

Looking for Prints?

I’ve set up an online printing service with Imagekind and you can browse many of my works there and have them made into prints. If you can’t find the one you want, let me know which one and I’ll set up a file with them for you. Order right from them and they’ll ship it to you directly. Their shop has an excellent 100% acid-free rag paper, “Hannemuhle Pearl” (not shiny and not matte, just perfect), which I highly recommend.
