STARART

Cat Stevens Artwork

This  is a very rare and unique book titled ' Starart ' which was beautifully designed and edited by Debby Chesher. This book showcased the drawings of such  musicians as John Mayall, Joni Mitchell, Ron Wood. Cat Stevens was also one of these talented young musicians who's  creative art work was highlighted in this extrodinary book. Some of the drawings highlighted by Cat Stevens were his better known album art, which we all know and love. But others  featured drawings have never  been seen before drawings outside of this book or personal friends and family members of Cats....... Majicat is proud to present these elusive drawings that appeared in this very unique and out of print Art Book.

no simple pop star." starart

Into White
 
I built my house from barley rice
Green pepper walls and water ice
Tables of paper wood, windows of light
And everything emptying into
white.
 
A simple garden, with acres of sky
A
brown-haired dogmouse
If one dropped by
Yellow Delanie would sleep well at night
With everything emptying into
white.
 
A sad
blue eyed drummer rehearses outside
A
black spider dancing on top of his eye
Red legged chicken stands ready to strike
And everything emptying into
white.
 
I built my house from barley rice
Green pepper walls and water ice...
And everything emptying into
white

If you are like me and just have to have a copy of this out of print book. Below you will notice all the information that you may need in trying to locate it through book search websites. Note: This book can run you into a little bit of money as it is OUT OF PRINT and very scarce to come by. But there are many talented artist artwork with in it, so it is well worth the money.
