What a thrill to see a piece I drew used as the cover art for world renowned NASA astronomer Sten Odenwald's new book Eternity: A User's Guide, which is now available on amazon. Be sure to pick up a copy.

Book description: "Between the birth of the universe and eternity are an incredible number of key events that trace the emergence of the physical world, our earth, the appearance of life, and the ascent of humans and their intellectual culture. Most books trace only one of these threads of events through time so that you rarely get a sense of how episodes in astronomy or geology impact human history. This book features over 2,400 events culled from the scientific literature and from future speculation to fill-in our piece of eternity with meaningful events that made us who we are as individuals, a species, and as a living system. Presented in 'sound-bite' form with over 300 colorful illustrations, this book offers a guide to our small portion of eternity, and how by taking possession of it we can become its Users rather than passive travelers."

Cards by Caca, based in the UK, has been working with a diverse group of artists to create a gorgeous collection of greeting cards to raise money for the CCUK (Crohn's And Colitis UK). I’m so happy that my artwork can help such a great cause.  What makes this even more special for me is that my father and fellow artist JB Rattner has contributed one of his gorgeous watercolor flowers to the line.

I'm very honored that my work was not only chosen to be in the new book by Graffito Books' "The Pinup Project", but that my "It's a Cinch" piece is on the second page, welcoming you to the introduction. What a thrill! This book is a collection of modern pin-up artists who are creating pieces in the classic American pin-up style, sci-fi and fantasy pin-up, cartoon and comic book pin-up, hot rod pin-up, neo-surreal pin-up and many more. A must have for the pin-up aficionado, this stunning book is non-stop eye-popping pleasure and for pin-up artists it is an essential source of inspiration.

I recently had the honor of collaborating with burlesque sensation Roxi D'Lite. Roxi is not only a talented performer but also a talented photographer and this piece was inspired by a photo Roxi took of herself.
