Homewood's Four Seasons Antiques, Art and Botanicals hosts a book signing and art opening for the new book release: Birmingham Sketchbook.

On Friday, February 20, from 5:30 to 8:00 p.m., you will have an opportunity to collect a copy of the beautiful collection of artwork by area artists that captures the history of the city of Birmingham.

Author Allison Puccetti Adams and artists Warren Mullins, She She (Vaughn), Justin Banger, and Kevin Jones, Linda Vance, Craig Gallaway, and Beverly Klamer will be at Four Season's Antiques, Art and Botanicals so you can have multiple signatures for your one of a kind copy of Birmingham Sketchbook.

Artist Clark Walker featured in book at Capitol Book

I have proclaimed that this is the year of writing for Allison.
Although when I paint, my mind flows and I write...
and when I write...I get inspired to paint....
so only time will tell.

But I wanted to share some information on a colorful artist who lives in Montgomery. His name is Clark Walker and two of his paintings take center stage in our home in Birmingham.
And in doing so, I also introduce a writer from Montgomery who has captured his quirks on paper. He is a true artist in the "artsy" sense of the word...an icon in Alabama...an character....and finally he has gotten his fair shake.

I Just Make People Up
If you live in Montgomery, chances are that you have a Clark Walker painting in your house (we do), and we can't think of a better companion for those paintings than Foster Dickson's brand new book about Clark, I Just Make People Up: Ramblings With Clark Walker.

It's a series of interviews that Foster did with Clark over several years, and it's chock full of beautiful full color reproductions of many of Clark's paintings. It's a smallish coffee table book, hardcover, 128 pages , $45. Beautiful, and a no-brainer must-have for all of Clark's admirers.

May this inspire all who love the written word as well as the "pretty pictures" and you won't have to dig long to find a great story...Clark Walker's life is full of them.
