Elemental Artist Book 1: Oil and Dust

When the ashes of destruction have settled, a new world has arisen from the plagues of the past - the worship of greed and the pursuit of power. Now, the remaining communities in this post-apocalyptic world focus on creating connections and forging futures filled with family and love, with the help of hard work, hope, and a little bit of magic.

This is the world that artist Matthew Sugiyama knows well. Traveling the countryside in search of the family he lost as a child, he trades his art for supplies and uses his honed magic to re-draw the boundaries of reality, fashioning a better world for those he meets.

Following glimpses of half-seen visions, Matthew and the friends he encounters along the way will travel a path from light to darkness and back again - a road where things lost in the past can only be found in the love of the present and the hope for the future. Wherever this path leads, be it from joy to sorrow or from tears to laughter, Matthew, the Elemental Artist, knows that humanity will always triumph, in a world he has painted in shades of Oil and Dust.

Author Jami Farleigh invites readers to meet a rich tapestry of characters and to travel through a world that blends fantasy, laughter, coming of age, and evocative literary stylings to create a perfect escape. Fans of The Goblin Emperor, The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet, The Language of Flowers, and Quarter Share will delight in this tale of humor, humanity, and the power of hope.
