This is really small batch, so…
PLEASE LIMIT YOUR PURCHASE to one book per person.

As if. Heh.

This book takes stock of my progress as an artist.
Also, I explain the what, how and why I make my art.

“As a provocative but understated American artist working in the tradition of Romare Bearden, McClinton does not see our people as the problems we have been taught they are. His work sees our legacy through the lens of this truth: Black people are beautiful, living, solutions.” 

— Excerpted from Foreword written by Joshunda Sanders

208 pages, A4 (8.3 x 11.7), Smyth-sewn binding.

  • One price. Taxes and shipping included.

  • I will receive the batch of books in approximately one month. Estimated to be around late April, 2025. Then I will sign each copy, pack them up and ship them out.

  • Due to my humble abode, book inventory will be available in 100 qty. batches. Depending upon demand, a second batch would be printed in May, shipped in June 2025.

  • The batch is very small, because... reality. I want my friends and loved ones to be able to get a book. I might let a purchase of 2 slide… but 3 or more books will likely get refunded.

    And… I’m well aware of how presumptuously grandiose this sounds. HAHAHAHA.
