Mary Beth Boone The linocut images in this book are a tribute to the mountains and forests I frequently visit in North Carolina and Virginia. My father’s home place still remains on the side of a mountain in Boone’s Mill, Virginia. I often look at photographs of his old house and remember visiting there as a child. The book measures 3.75”x6”x5/8” closed and 3.75”x6”x5” opened. A variable edition of 2, this is #1. Block prints on handmade papers, tea dyed Rives BFK, cotton fabric, thread, transfer prints, milk paint on papyrus, mica, and waxed linen were used. 2009. To purchase this work please contact Laura at 23 Sandy Gallery. |
