Galerie Bohème to exhibit work of Ursula Vernon
During the month of October, Galerie Bohème will be pleased to present the work of artist, illustrator, internet meme creator and Hugo award-winning children’s book author Ursula Vernon. Creator of the graphic novel Digger, the popular children’s book series Dragonbreath, and the painting titled The Biting Pear of Salamanca (better known as the Lol Wut Pear), Ursula draws fantastical worlds filled with strange creatures, animal saints and peculiar tableaux.
