A discovery that I had to share with my readers:

original literature-inspired illustrations by New York City based designer Evan Robertson. Check out his etsy website here for the full collection. Each illustration is 13"x19" and only $24. 

I'd love to see Robertson's take on two of my favorite lines from Fitzgerald's This Side of Paradise: 

"They slipped briskly into an intimacy from which they never recovered."

or

"I don't want to repeat my innocence. I want to pleasure of losing it again."
