I enjoy reading all genres of books. I relish actually holding a book in my hands, turning the pages with my hands as I am reading a book, carefully observing the illustrations of a book for better understanding of its' meaning. I also from time to time make usage of reading books via computer, tablet, and smartphone- but to me, there is nothing more enriching for me than to have actual tactile reading experiences with books. I created this self-portrait artwork of myself with a stack of books ready to read. I used the Paint program on my computer to produce my art.

marie-claire gallet 20 Jan 2017

I read everyday !! I prefer the paper book (the touch, the smell, the maniability to go backwards, to read and read again the back of the book lol ) to the computer tablet, but must admit I have one because it is so much pratical and lighter when you are travelling !! Nice creation that should encourage everybody to read, Vernonette !!!

Artist Reply: Thank you Marie-Claire for enjoying my artwork, and I also appreciate you sharing your views about reading books. :)
