Maddie is a sweet-tempered coonhound who accompanied her owner; Theron; on a yearlong; cross-country trip while he worked on a photojournalism project. In his spare time; Theron took photos of Maddie doing what she does best: standing on things. From bicycles to giant watermelons to horses to people; there really isnt anything that Maddie wont stand on with grace and patience. The poignant Instagram photos of this beautiful dog and her offbeat poses have captured the imagination of all those who long for a road trip with a good dog for company. Maddie on Things celebrates the strange talent of one special dog and will resonate with any dog lover who appreciates the quirky hearts (and extraordinary balance) of canines.

" Walls That Speak ; The Murals of John Thomas Biggers- an artist opinionBy poetFirst published in paperback; this long overdue hardback and collectors treasure about one of Americas and one of the worlds greatest master " poets " is a must read. Like Van Gogh; it will be decades before the " mainstream " media focuses on this great artist and his significance to humanity. Up on reading and observing the masterworks of this great artist; you will agree that John Biggerss art stands with Hieronymus Bosch; William Hogarth; Bruegel the Elder; Rivera; and Paul Gauguin; to name a few whose works are " eternal ". The author olive Jensen Theisen; a Ph.D. in art education; professor emerita; and Minnie Stephens Piper Professor recipient; has also written; " A life on Paper: The Drawings and Lithographs of John Thomas Biggers ". We owe her a debt of gratitude for her vision.
