Views of the wonderful book that WeatherGrrrl made for me for Xmas

I got a lot of very cool gifts at Xmas, but a clear stand out is the above, a wonderful, hand made art book created by my lovely wife just for me!

The text is a set of Fibonacci poems written by our good friend Athena Kildegaard. The cover paper (which you can’t really see here) is a really cool paper made from bark that another friend (Peter Whelan) got years ago in Bali (or someplace close).

I took a bunch of photos of it at Xmas, and then some more here, in part because it’s really cool and makes neat photographs, and in part because she needed a collage like this to submit to the Annual Juried Student Art Exhibit.

It’s a really wonderful book, and a really wonderful gift! Love you dear!

We’ve had two days of this super cold weather, with schools being closed and events being cancelled. This weekend it’s supposed to get to nearly freezing (high 20’s F), which will be a nice change. In the meantime we bundle up and drink lots of hot chocolate.
