Len Boswell

Stick Figures: The Life and Art of Len Boswell

Here, for the first time, are the complete incomplete works of Len Boswell, the premier stick-artist of Sticklandia. From simple stick drawings to re-creations of master works, Boswell's drawings explain, excoriate, discombobulate, entertain, and teach. With frivolity at the fore, he opens his world to us, letting us see everything from a fresh, if often demented, perspective. Author and art historian Sticky Stickerson lets the drawings speak for themselves, only interrupting to point us in new directions as the full Boswell catalog opens, unfolds, and engulfs. With this book, Boswell and his art rise from obscurity to a whole new level-perhaps just above obscurity and maybe off to the side somewhat. At any rate, it's very foggy in Sticklandia, so it's hard to tell most days. Whatever his status, this book will surely help you keep your grip on frivolity. Enjoy!
