Description:Sculptural altered book made to look like a panel of wood. Paperback book, Elmer's glue, acrylic paint. 2016. Unique edition. Signed by the artist. "I have been making frame/books over the years, also framed picture books. Books = content; framed hold content. To me there is magic in that. The wood frames are meant to trick the eye (they do) and stimulate the imagination. You almost have to touch the wood." -- artist's statement
