Scroll down to see a few examples of my recent work with artists, photographers, educators, non-profits, families and travelers.
SoulScape
“This book is a collection of landscape paintings that use a combination of ink and paint on a variety of surfaces.
My mission with this series is to capture the essence of places that have awakened my soul.”
~ Kate Meth
Walk with Me
“You probably need to know three things about me. First, I love to walk in the woods. Second, I tend to ramble. The third and most important is that I’m fascinated by wildflowers. In fact, they changed my life and my perspective, and have become my unwitting teachers, helping me not only understand myself, but this baffling, wonderful life.”
- Sue Wasserman
Life Lessons
Author Barbara Hoskins, PhD, is an educational consultant with a practice in Pasadena, California. She also works in remote communities in Kenya where she has guided educators to teach in ways that are grounded in the cultural values of their people. Life Lessons-Parenting thru the Lens of the Maasai People shares how these people educate their children to become strong competent adults and explores how their wisdom may be of value to us.
Into the Midst
Photographer, artist and Woman of Wisdom, E.Cho’s masterpiece, Into the Midst is a book about spiritual enlightenment. But it can be experienced at a multitude of levels from casual feel-good images to deep cosmic awareness. The balance of rich imagery and inspirational prose makes it a fun read.
Roadmaps, Treasures, Watermarks
Author Margaret Brooks is based in Australia. But she spends much of her time in the remote Himalayan country of Bhutan.
As Margaret explains, this book celebrates the outstanding work of the Rinpung Centre for Early Childhood Care and Development, Paro College of Education. Research tells us that when we provide rich, open ended, child led experiences for children ages three to seven, the outcomes for them later in life are greatly enhanced.
Couture Confections
“After going to Berlin to attend a private Masterclass in paper, I was inspired to create a line of dresses made from paper. I have shopped internationally to find the papers I use in my creations. Each dress is designed in the fashion of the 1950’s and uses the skills I learned in working with Couture clothing. I have brought together 17 of those mini–Couture Confections to showcase in this book.”
~ Nancy Geren
Our Aughts
The Lindeman family spent the first decade of the 2000’s traveling and hiking, in parts of Europe and North America, with camera in hand. Shown here is just one of three volumes we’ve produced with them, totaling over 500 pages of memories, for their kids to revisit as they grow older.
Radiant Season
A Museum Catalogue of Artist Kevin Sloan’s magical series of acrylic on canvas paintings for the gallery at the Denver Botanic Gardens. The entire exhibit was created during the Covid-19 shutdown, which brings an entirely new perspective to the work.
Kevin’s paintings “are a testament, a witness to this marvelous and troubled world”
