Book Shelves

This was going to be a article on book shelves, the intricacies of them, from design to content. The way a book shelf can be a simple piece of furniture in your room, any room or it can be the focus of the room, whether it is one shelf or several set of shelves it can still be the focus of the room, or stairs.
But I'm going to save that article for later, I always attach a image and link to posts and looking for some examples of book shelved I knew existed I found one I did not.

Colin Thompson appears to be an Australian artist with talent for eclectic artwork. He is proud of and holds dear is copyright so I show this image here with a link to his site(should you be him and want it removed let me know).
I found this image summed up what I was hoping to say visually and in an inspiring manner.

Each shelf in the set has its own character and characters, the title of each book adds to the character, some titles play on famous titles, while others are thoughtful and unique. each books shelf has a story too it or asking to be made from it. Every time I look again I see a new character, creature or feature.

If you would like to entertain, post a picture of your book shelf. I think peoples book shelves say a lot about them.
