Altered Bookboard

First Layout

Second Layout

I went to New Brunswick this summer to 

visit my family. Spent two weeks on the

shore of Beresford Beach, and was inspired

by my walks and collecting seashore treasures.

This is an altered bookboard, and the

first few pages. Shells drawing in my

moleskin with tinted charcoal, and cut up to size
to fit in my bookboard. It was place on
aseaside/beach inspired background with sunset.

Poem exerpt by William Blake on vellum reads

To see a World in a Grain of Sand
And a Heaven in a Wild Flower,
Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand
And Eternity in an hour.
