Earth, Wind, Fire and Maya Large Type edition

Rich Okun, first an artist, then a poet, reminds one of a modern day Norman Rockwell. He brings us exquisite artwork and poetry that stirs the imagination, all at the same time. The purpose of his work is simple. He wants to inspire, and his collection of work does just that. This book is made with love and filled with love, inspired by one very small, very loving dog, a dog named Maya. Rich Okun spent most of his career in various corporate positions, and was one of the youngest members of the Art Student's League of New York. Rich finally thinks he has an answer to the question he has asked himself all his life, "What do you want to be when you grow up?" He has found his calling and is now pursuing writing and illustrating children's books, becoming inspired when a new puppy, Maya, came into his life. (He knew right away she could help.) Maya and Rich live with his wife, and 4 cats in an atmosphere of happy creativity, which is exactly what Bellissima Publishing, LLC hopes this book will inspire in kids of all ages who dream of becoming more.
