HPB, back on 10/9

The four items on the top and the one on the bottom to the farthest left are actually lined journals printed by Flame Tree. Lower middle book is also a Flame Tree publication. There are two more Chiltern publications. Everything is fuqqin shiny and feels embossed... except this edition of The Picture of Dorian Gray.

Someone stop me from buying books. I can't read them that fast....

But I did read this. It nearly made me cry! Now I want all The Dark Tower books.... 🤦🏻‍♀️

Adrien Feint - The Illawarra flame tree, 1941, oil on canvas Adrian George Feint (1894-1971) was an Australian Artist who worked with several mediums including penwork, bookplates, wood engravings and oil painting. Feint was born in New South Wales. He enjoyed drawing from an early age and would draw pictures all over his exercise books. In 1912, he began studies at Sydney Art School. In 1916 he enlisted in the Australian Imperial Force and served with the 15th Field Ambulance on the Western Front. In 1919, Feint was granted three months leave to study at the Académie Julien, Paris. He was discharged later that year and Feint returned to the Sydney Art School. He was employed as assistant editor of the magazine Art in Australia from 1928 to 1940. He also provided illustrations for magazines and advertising. In 1929 Feint started to exhibit his oil paintings. Within a decade, Feint no longer produced commercial works, putting all his energy into oil-painting. He sought guidance from Margaret Preston.
