ALL GOOD THINGS: A TREASURY OF IMAGES TO UPLIFT THE SPIRITS AND REAWAKEN WONDER

Mark Haddon, author of The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time

‘Ellcock, who is described as “an image hunter and social media art curator”, posts the most astonishing images. His recent book All Good Things is subtitled A Treasury of Images to Uplift the Spirits and Reawaken Wonder. This is perfect for our time.’

The Book of Change: Images to Inspire Revelations and Revolutions
The Book of Change: Images to Inspire Revelations and Revolutions
‘Itinerant image-scavenging art-fugitive Stephen Ellcock returns with a new book revealing that beneath his acerbic, feral and rarefied exterior lies a large, kind and generous heart. When you get right down to it, in life and art, love is the message, and The Book of Change brings forth the codes, keys and surreal visions leading to brighter days.’
Simon Armstrong, Tate Modern, in The Bookseller
