Illustration Friday - Obsession
Visit Bookland Often.
With this image, I wanted to pay homage to my main obsession: books!
I LOVE books-- real, ink-on-paper, books. I love everything about them! I get nervous when I hear talk of how digital books are going to replace real books. I can't imagine a world without bookshops and libraries, lined with shelves full of BOOKS! What a terrible thought!
I'm going to put this collage up in my son's room to remind him of all the adventures reading takes you on.

ReplyDeletethis is really nice!
ReplyDeleteI would love this collage in my room!! I share your love of real books, but I'm slowly learning to accept digital books too...
ReplyDeleteI love this one! I totally agree about books. Books are just so amazing... the touch, the turning of the page, the satisfaction of inching your way through. I'm a 100% book gal!
ReplyDeleteI love your picture -- particularly the little boat with the very important note on its sails! Funnily enough, I woke up this morning thinking about the same issues, and feeling sad.
ReplyDeleteLovely to meet you! :)
This piece is uplifting--it reminds me of the mystery and vastness beyond our immediate world.
ReplyDeleteAnother cool piece, Vivi! This is so cool - It could be a pro-library PSA poster!
