My painting of a pair of Mallard ducks and another of a Black-capped Chickadee are the featured artwork on the 2012 fall/winter bookmarks for The Village Bookstore in Littleton, New Hampshire.  Every book sold comes with their iconic bookmark, often featuring the artwork of a local artist.  In addition to this, they also sponsor a long standing bookmark art competition for local grade school children, featuring the winning art from our up and coming young artists.  This dynamic, eclectic and independent bookstore is a well established retailer situated on the historic Main Street of Littleton, New Hampshire and I am thrilled to be the artist chosen for this season’s bookmark!  The bookstore has long been a strong supporter of the “buy local, shop small” idea and features books by local and regional authors as well as offering a wide selection of books of all types.  I can’t say enough good things about the knowledgeable and friendly staff either!  Can you tell I LOVE this place?!  Every trip to The Village Bookstore is an adventure as well as a book lover’s delight…and you’ll get a really cool bookmark too!
