Artist Stabin published illustrustrated childrens book
Artist Victor Stabin invites fans to celebrate the release of his book "Daedal Doodle" at a book party and exhibition at 5 p.m. Saturday at the Carbon County Cultural Project art gallery in Jim Thorpe.
Stabin will be signing books in the gallery and displaying some of his original rendered pen and ink drawings.
A vain snail, a small-headed monster looking for true love, sub-atomic sheep and a prehistoric horse with a dental hygienist are the images rendered in this new book.
Originally created for his 3-year-old daughter, Stabin wanted to approach the familiar alphabet book format and transform it into something extraordinary. He read more than 8,000 pages of dictionary definitions and came up with a series of alliterations.
Stabin's artwork has appeared on covers of Newsweek, Time, The New York Times and Rolling Stone. He has been commissioned to paint nine U.S. postage stamps and numerous album covers, most notably "Kiss Unmasked."
His artwork has been exhibited at the Society of Illustrators Museum of American Illustration, the National Portrait Gallery and many colleges and universities.
The book costs $24.99 and can be purchased at www.victorstabin.com or at the Victor Stabin Gallery in Jim Thorpe. The Carbon County Cultural Project is located at 268 Broadway, Jim Thorpe.

In this article I want to share some of the concepts from a classic pen and ink book by Arthur Guptill called, “Drawing with Pen & Ink.” (This book is out of print but I believe it has been reprinted as “ Rendering in Pen and Ink: The Classic Book On Pen and Ink Techniques for Artists, Illustrators, Architects, and Designers, ” written by Arthur L. Guptill and edited by Susan E. Meyer. According to Guptill, pen drawing as a separate and complete art form is comparatively recent, only appearing in the last quarter of the 19th Century. The pen was, of course, used in art much earlier, you have only to look at the illuminations of the Middle Ages or the studies of various old masters to see that. What Guptill is describing are pen drawings as pieces of fine art in their own right, not as adjuncts to calligraphy or as parts of preliminary studies for later finished paintings. Photomechanical reproduction techniques played a large role in the popularity of pen drawing as a separate and distinct art form. Before the advent of computers, scanners, and digital separation techniques, artwork for reproduction was divided into two basic categories: “line” and “tone” artwork. Color artwork that needed to be separated into several colors for printing was “tone.” Graphite pencil, as well as other techniques using graded shades of gray or color, were also considered “tone.
