Customer Reviews

every picture tells a story

I am the illustrator of this book and am trying to find the original illustrations I did 20 years ago. The originals were large and intricate and the book is a terrible representation of the original art work as some of these drawings were reduced up to 80%. However the recipes are wonderful and the feedback I've received has been great. If anyone knows where I can find this author to ask if she has the drawings, please email me at mark@tuccicreative.com. I have tried HPBooks, Penguin Press and Fisher Press with no luck.
