Parker Choi Is Super Sugoi
Robet Jung
“A complex, ambitious, hilarious, explicitly sexy, and utterly relevant social novel that can stand toe to toe with the best of the genre. ”--The Ministry of Graphik InformationWhat happens when a transgressive Korean-American street artist is legitimized by his rapid ascension to the fine art world, and the money starts rolling in? Well he can still rob you blind and paint a pornographic mura... read more
The Illustrated Tales of Yazh
Mike Yachnik and 12 international illustrators
The fifteenth century was not known for good plumbing or iPods. What they got right, however, was the illuminated manuscript. Often many worked under the guidance of one to create a unified whole. But other times, toiling monks were given freer reign and they introduced individual variation that made the manuscript robust and surprising from section to section. This present collaboration betwe... read more
Ponto Cego do Direito, O: The Brazilian Lessons
Rui Cunha Martins
O leitor deste livro é confrontado com uma despistagem clínica feita sobre uma série de conceitos: prova, evidência, convicção, crença, adesão, expectativa, decisão, verdade, processo. E reforma - reforma processual. Todo este material é tratado ao nível do respectivo código genético, das correspondentes propriedades, das potenciais zonas de contágio. E, sobretudo, ao nível da sua requisição f... read more
Hora dos Cadaveres Adiados, A: Corrupcao, Expectativa e Processo Penal
Rui Cunha Martins
O importante é o processo. A batalha pelo devido processo legal é mais importante do que o combate à corrupção; e o destino das "sociedades do contraditório" depende desta opção. É este o argumento subjacente ao presente trabalho. Um argumento impopular, importa reconhecer. Capaz de defraudar expectativas. Ora, esse é exatamente o ponto. Na procissão dos cadáveres adiados em que se tornou hoje... read more

It took me a little while after collaborating with Nicolae, to think of the right words to describe perfection. Nicolae was professional, understanding, friendly, and above all an incredible artist. I couldn't have asked for better. He is a true artist who truly creates works of art. With his style and dedication to my wants and needs he created a piece that I know will attract my readers. It d...

Nicolae delivers! He has a style and quality you can count on, but they don't restrict where his art can take you or go. He used his time well, tackled notes no problem, and welcomed new challenges and ideas.
He offered a wide spectrum that ranged from bold, colourful pop influences to archaic engravings. I couldn't be more pleased with our collaboration!

Nicolae is an outstanding artist. Excellent, both in his intricate attention to detail and professional style of quick and punctual interaction, listening and responding pragmatically to requests, as well as offering his own supportive feedback. His brilliantly gifted style is matched by a sense of great motivation and patience. There is no doubt that the love of his work comes from the heart. ...

Nicolae went above and beyond in his work! Collaborating with him has helped bring another valued layer of character to my book that made it into something I can incredibly proud of. If someone was looking to add some excellent artwork to their projects, I would recommend they place Nicolae at the top of their list.
