I finished the last book in the Forgotten Knowledge series last Friday morning and felt a mix of relief, satisfaction and sadness at finally getting them all done. I arranged them on the dinning room table in a circle to take a look at them for the first time as a set. They look amazing.

While there are about a million ways for these to be displayed, for the purposes of the Container Art space they will be hung on the wall fully open. I hope you can drop by the PNE and visit the show. More photos to come once this work is installed.

Wow! That is so impressive and amazing to see all together. It’s like a rolodex of knowledge!

Ha! I like that. I’m curious how they will look all hung on the wall together.

Thanks June. I’m really glad to hear from a fellow altered book artist.
