Wegman, Flo and Wendell

October 5, 2013 9:34 AM

Although best known for iconic photographs of his Weimaraner dogs, artist William Wegman is also a painter. While Wegman's combined the two before, recently painting atop commercial travel postcards, he's just published Flo & Wendell, a children's storybook illustrated by dog photos painted over to tell a whimsical tale. Images and review (LA Times); video (YouTube).

It MUST be noted that this is NOT MeFi's Own Wendell.

Adorable picture book! I wish he had used more of the "spirited" dog photos throughout the book rather than just at the end with the cooking spreads. So cute. Thanks for this post.
