Book 1: “Two Crows”
Original published 1813 - Altered 2022
Do crows not symbolize ornithological persistence with their constant cawing and survival instincts?
Book 2: “Angel or Troublemaker”
Facsimile of original published 1837 - Altered 2022
The perception of this image can go in either direction, or one can see an angelic troublemaker?
Book 3: “My Sidekick”
Created by the artist in 2017 - Altered weekly
The pages of this book receive the excess paint from a brush and samples of ink stamping. The persistence of this practice creates perception of abstract art.
