Christopher David Ryan sent over two beautiful books. Today I’m showing you hers. which is a sweet sweet poem accompanied by sweet sweet illustrations. The poem starts as “hers is a world…” and goes on to say how “her” world “unlike yours” is “free of time” and “full of space” and “limited… but limitless” and other such things that I wish MY world was. The illustrations are soft with crayon lines. They have muted flat colors filling them, often refusing to stay in the lines. Each illustration has “her” face integrated in it, whether she becomes the rain, an umbrella, a leaf or the wings of a butterfly. You can see all the images from the book CDR’s website right here. I don’t see it in his shop just yet but you can find out more from him here as well as pick up prints to frame. Tomorrow I can share the other book. Thanks CDR!!
