I am so very excited to be part of

The Art of Sherlock Holmes 

#BitsaboutBooksBlogTour 

The Art of Sherlock Holmes is a totally unique experience. Imagine a dozen or more of the finest artists in the U.S. creating art for some the best new short stories written by some of the finest Holmes authors in the world. Each artist has envisioned their version of one story specifically selected for them. All stories and art in one large, hardcover, coffee table presentation volume. This first edition features artists from West Palm Beach, Florida. Future editions will be global, with participating artists contributing from all over the world. The Art of Sherlock Holmes was conceived and curated by Phil Growick, himself a renowned Holmes author.

MoMoBookDiary Review:

Thank you to Caroline of bitsaboutbooks (@CarolineBookBit) for inviting me to take part in this blog tour for The Art of Sherlock Holmes.

I have read and reviewed a number of Sherlock Holmes books on this blog and previous to my blogging life. I have never been so taken with a book before. This is simply awesome.  The art is fascinating and, in my opinion, relates wonderfully with the individual stories.

This is definately a book any Sherlock fan will want to have in their collection – on their coffee table for all to see!  

It is a book that you will find yourself picking up over and over again. 

In a word – brilliant!

About The Author:

 

Phil Growick

The project was conceived by and is curated by Phil Growick. Phil ran one of the world’s leading executive search firms in the advertising industry. Phil’s network in the creative world is unparalleled which is perfect for artist acquisition. Now living in West Palm, Phil is heavily involved in the local art community and as a two-time Sherlock Holmes novelist came up with the concept of combining two of his passions – art and Holmes.

“You’re presented with murder, theft, treason, betrayal, love, loss and greed. All the ingredients to make a delicious Holmes meal of mystery: inimitable interpretations of truly unique Holmes stories.”
