The Secret Art of Dr. Seuss

The Secret Art of Dr. Seuss

Audrey Geisel
0/5 ( ratings)
These fabulous, whimsical paintings, created for his own pleasure and never shown to the public, show Geisel in a whole new light. Depicting outlandish creatures in otherworldly settings, the paintings use a dazzling rainbow of hues not seen in the primary-color palette of his books for children, and exhibit a sophisticated and often quite unrestrained side of the artist.

If you've ever read Oh, the Places You'll Go!, 'Cat in the Hat', Horton Hears a Who, or any of the dozens of books written and illustrated by Theodor Geisel, you may think you're familiar with the work of the man who delighted millions as "Dr. Seuss." But the wildly imaginative creations collected in these pages show a previously unseen dimension of Geisel's art. These fabulous and whimsical paintings, created for his own pleasure and never before shown in public, will enchant and amaze you.

"There was certainly nothing cookie-cutter, bland or trendy about Ted Grisel... You have entered Seuss-ville, where questions and doubts are left at the door... Enjoy yourself" writes Maurice Sendak, the esteemed author of Where the Wild Things Are, in his introduction to this wonderful book of sophisticated, technically accomplished artwork. Open these pages to see a whole new facet to an artist that has captivated readers of all ages for decades.

Book Contents: 65 color illustrations, and Introduction by Maurice Sendak & more.
