Welcome to the Watercolor Revolution

Oh my goodness, have you guys seen the artist roster for The Rest Is Up to You? Here, let me show you:
Seriously! It’s like a who’s-who of the indie art world, all of them collaborating to make art with cute-as-heck boy wonder Cohen Morano:
We’ve got the fiendishly playful Gary Baseman:
Punk rock modernist Tim Biskup:
Wandering bad-boy troubadour David Choe:
Street art legend Barry McGee:
Painter of enchantment Mark Ryden:
Master of the universe James Jean:
Poster maker extraordinaire Shepard Fairey:
Comics monarch Chris Ware:
Lowbrow goddess Isabel Samaras:
I could go on and on. But as we used to say at the end of our book reports, back when I was Cohen’s age—if you want to find out what happens in the rest of the book, you’re going to need to read it for yourself!

this is so awesome! I spied this at the 50 book covers shindig last night! The artist all really rose to the occasion and one can see the spirit of collaboration, creativity, and improvisation at work!
Thanks for sharing these! They are delightful and most creative!
