more from maine

i really enjoyed

the northeast harbor library

i spent all day saturday there.

 the maine room had this treasure

hidden in the stacks

 with beautifully letterpress 

 printed words

and even more beautiful garden prints

 and this small one

 this!

 and this-- 

and more.

 and i got to page through this book!

 so amazing

 a cross, in a way

 between two other book artists that i stand in awe of:

 timothy ely 

and 

william blake

 my eyes would go fuzzy

and then i'd go back to the book

 and this reminds me of rima staines.

who was trained 

as a book artist.

 and maybe a botanical artist or two.

 here are a few of his words

 and a few more

maybe carol barton.

~~~

and these last two

which so amaze me.

i'm home again, with more pictures 

for another day.

i promise.
