This whimsical, colorful work of art was created from a single Dr. Suess book, The Lorax - circa 1963. These older children's books often sit on shelves in thrift stores or second-hand shops and never see the light of day. For the Suess lover, this piece was created to bring joy and a smile to those who see it hanging on a wall or a shelf. It was created to be whimsical, with various known characters exposed for any child who knows these stories. It is colorful and exciting to be hung on a wall or displayed on a shelf.

Shane uses aged reference books deemed useless, like medical guides, journals, and encyclopedias, to bring new life to books that would otherwise be discarded. Glue seals the pages in their original printed location decided by the publisher, leaving the page revelations to the artist's imagination. Layers are removed to reveal images randomly. With no plan, the artist simply finds an exciting image, carves around the photo, diagram, or drawing, and adds cut lines, insets, and other random elements to provide an artistic view into the past, the book, and the pages as intended by the printer. Exposing the images in their original form, location, and placement on the page gives the viewer a greater appreciation of printed material from the Gilded Age when print media was mass-produced and information became readily available before today's digital format. Each page is carved delicately with stainless steel hardened medical scalpels to create a three-dimensional effect.

Shane uses old discarded printed material to bring new life to an item usually destined for the trash bin, landfill, or growing mold in some attack or basement.
