For most of us there is one book that stands above all the others, that is The One. (For Jane, it's The Phantom Tollbooth, for instance.)
Jane will paint yours on either 5x7" or 8x10" (it will be more detailed) paper and you will receive it in 2-4 weeks. (Framing adds another 2 weeks.)
This makes the ultimate publication day gift to celebrate your friend or client's first novel! All we need is a picture of the cover-to-be.
Just let us know what book in the field above. We have great photos of great editions of many great books, but if we don't have yours (or if there is a particular edition you'd like Jane to use) we'll ask you to send us a photo.
