Came across two beautiful works of art today, while researching online. Thought of Emerson's quote ("Never lose an opportunity of seeing anything that is beautiful; for beauty is God’s handwriting–a wayside sacrament.") and figured I'd share these.

First, the artists book, 'Reliquary,' by Keri Miki-Lani Schroeder, 2015. This may be the best mix of book, box, and frame that I've found in my long-standing investigation of the form:

Artist's website.

And this digital artists print I saw used as cover art for a music album: 'Voyage Pittoresque #4' by Ruud Van Empel, 2016. The full picture is jaw-droppingly beautiful. I can't imagine what it would be like in person. sometime about the mix of forest realism and digital hyperreality resonates very strongly, as I am in the very stages of pursuing a druidical nature spirituality. How colorful --how impossibly colorful-- will my path be, I wonder? print
