This book hangs on the wall or sits on a table. It is mounted on an art panel that has been painted with encaustic paint in natural, earthy colors.
The book itself is made with rough, handmade paper that I made in my studio, and bound with piece of pine branch and rough jute twine. It has been permanently attached to the art panel.
The exposed panel around the book has been embellished with small pinecones, mossy twig, small rocks (all from my yard) and a piece of driftwood gathered on a recent trip.
It has been entered in a show in October at Columbia Center for the Arts in Hood River, along with several other altered books and journals.
