Sebastian Kruger is one of the best caricature artist in the world. Stones is a great compilation of amazing portraits.

I really like the surrealism and style of every single illustration. It's a tremendous joy flipping through this book, and I found myself wanting so much more after the last page.

I've included a video of me flipping the pages because it says so much more than words can describe.

(More pictures are available on my blog. Just visit my Amazon profile for the link.)

STONES by Kruger is Fantastic...Great Work...We purchased "BIG JAGGER" in October...Looking for more...Also very interested in The STARS Book by Kruger, It appears I can't get it. We also like Ronnie Wood's Art work...Looking for a book on his Art.

Any true Stones fan (sarcastic sense of humor required) will LOVE this book!-Howie T

Aunque este libro nunca me llego y tuve que comprarlo en otra parte, igual lo califico de extraordinario. este artista hace caricaturas que parecen fotos y se ve que conoce bien a los grandiones Stones y su vida.
Buena impresion, buen arte, felicitaciones a Kruger.

Kruger is a truly great artist and this book is as much a study in character as it is in caricature. Kruger is as versatile and masterful an artist as one will ever encounter, and "Stones" is his interpretation of this group of celebrity musicians. One can see Kruger's personal relationship with them develop through the book- as Kruger gets to know the men, the paintings become less a series of smug caricatures and more a series of beautifully rendered, studied psychological portraits of the individuals. I'm not a big fan of the Rolling Stones, but I'm a huge fan of this collection of art!

THE BOOK IS A CONTAINERSHIP OF ABSOLOUTELY FABULOUS PAINTINGS OF (OF ALL THINGS) THE ROLLING STONES - THIS BOOK IS NOT ABOUT THEM SO MUCH AS ABOUT ART - THE STONES SIMPLY BRING OUT THE BEST IN PORTRAITURE ART - AND IF YOU NEVER LIKES THE STONES BEFORE, YOU WILL NOW. MIND YOU, TO THE UNINITIATED (IE ALL NON-ARTISTS) -THIS BOOK MAY SEEM POINTLESS SOMEHOW. BUT WAIT! COULD YOU POSSIBLY PORTRAY ANYONE WITH THE AMAZING ACCURACY THAT KRUGER HAS???- EVEN REMOTELY?? KRUGER HAS TAKEN THE QUINTESSENTIAL ELEMENTS OF EACH ARTIST AND TURNED EACH PICTURE/CARRICATURE INTO A MINDBLOWING SENSATIONAL VISUAL FEAST-ENJOY! I DID! - AS AN ARTIST - IM COMPLETELY ENVIOUS OF KRUGERS ABILITY - AND I WANT TO WIN THAT $100- SO I CAN AFFORD TO BUY THE BOOK! - I READ A FRIENDS COPY AND DONT OWN ONE MYSELF (boo hoo!!)...ALTHEA (FANCY A PORTRAIT ARTIST NOT OWNING THE BEST PORTRAIT BOOK ON THE MARKET!!)
