its long awaited first volume featuring thirty-one master drawings from the studio
of renowned artist Justin Michael Jenkins with its publication of Visionary
Landscapes in conjunction with Lulu (www.lulu.com), the world's fastest-growing
provider of print-on-demand books.

Visionary Landscapes explores the complex and dynamic landscapes the artist creates
with the help of worldwide scholars, artists, and critics who share their thoughts
and perspectives on the art style and approach and each work of art by Justin
Michael Jenkins. Thirty-one hand selected favorites are chosen for this coffee table
style book, which includes various works from his chess, anatomy, mind, spiritual,
and abstract collections. The book aims to provide fascinating insights and hidden
gems that reveal certain core foundations of the artists style. There is also an
intimate side to the book, where the artist also plays a large role in driving home
the understanding of each drawing and the collections as a whole by providing
intimate and deep revelations as to how he started each work and what his intentions
were in placing certain objects, shapes, and colors, and the breakdown of each. This
book acts as both a scholarly work for an educational environment and as an
entertaining book for many people from all walks of life.

Imaginative Pencil came to Lulu because the company wanted to be in control of the
publishing process and found Lulu's print-on-demand tools to be fast, easy and, most
importantly, free. Visionary Landscapes is available for purchase at www.lulu.com,
in a marketplace filled with other unique and wonderful surprises.

"Independent publishing and print-on-demand is the wave of the future, and the
future is now," said Michael from Imaginative Pencil. "The Lulu process allows me to
cut out the middle man (i.e. a separate publisher) and get my work out there the way
I want it. Our book, Visionary Landscapes, is much like Lulu itself-it puts control
of your destiny in your own hands."
