Welcome to Mother's Finest, a wickedly elegant collection of illustrated stories that chronicle the downfall of the beautiful, the bold, and the hopelessly vain. With razor-sharp wit and a macabre sense of style, this book introduces readers to a gallery of once-glorious individuals whose charm, cheekbones, and delusions of eternal youth couldn't save them from the ravages of time - or their own theatrical ends.
Guided by a sardonic narrator with a flair for the dramatic, each chapter reveals a portrait of a fallen beauty caught in their final moment - glamorous, grotesque, and eternally posing for a camera that no longer flashes. These are not heroes. They're not saints. They're cautionary tales in couture: narcissists, divas, and socialites undone not by tragedy, but by their refusal to fade quietly.
Mother's Finest is part fashion show, part funeral, and entirely a satire of vanity culture. With haunting illustrations and "eulogies with bite," it invites readers to laugh, cringe, and reflect on the price of chasing perfection in a world where time always has the last word.
A love letter to the glamorous undead and a mirror held up to our obsession with youth, this is a book where style meets rigor mortis - and the spotlight never dies.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
My name is Stephen Mott Daniels, Sr. aka Esteban. I am a 74-year-old veteran who has been an artist for the past 70 years. I recently realized that I have accumulated over 5000 images of my art and want to share my visions with the world. Although the overall theme represents Halloween, I believe my illustrations represent something more. Who we are when we take our masks off.
My vision is to open our minds up to what is the inevitable. I want to diversify my brand as much as possible. Posters, apparel, cups, and books are some of the possibilities. I have attached a sample of my work, hoping that you can share in my vision.
I realize this is a long shot. One never knows unless one tries.
