Product Description
Between these two covers you will find nearly every What is Mr. Winkle? character ever created, a veritable treasure trove for lovers of animals, art and photography. This celebrated collaboration between an artist and her very special muse has spanned over a decade, and Mr. Winkle: The Complete Character Collection sums up their most popular series with wit, warmth and beauty. The talent, soul and range Mr. Winkle displays in these photos will delight long-time fans and astound those discovering the charming little changeling for the first time. His expressions and poses are genuine, not digitally generated, spontaneously captured through the lens of renowned photographer Lara Jo Regan whose endless interpretations of her canine wonder will make you laugh and cry with equal measure. Mr. Winkle was a former stray rescued by Regan. Inspired by his chameleonic cuteness and a pathos quotient too great to be contained in one guise, she lovingly concocted well over one hundred Mr. Winkle identities, ranging from animals like seals and squirrels to inanimate objects like carpet samples and loofa sponges. Remarkably, she shows us how the amazing Mr. Winkle does indeed resemble them all. Mr. Winkle: The Complete Character Collection serves as the definitive anthology of Regan s prolific portrayals of the enduring, yet ever-changing appeal that made Mr. Winkle into an international cult icon -a heartbreaking and heartwarming creature who represents the beauty, vulnerability and potential of homeless animals - and of all living beings.
