Just received the copy of American Radiance I ordered (for $16! Old library book ❤️) after seeing your post. It’s brilliant!! So much inspiration. Thank you so much for the recommendation

I love your posts so much! (And your work.) I just ordered two copies of the American folk art, one for myself and one for my brother. I know we'll both get so much inspiration from them.

Oh cool! Thanks! I am glad you were able to find them. I sent one to my friend as a surprise, and he texted me a few times to say how much he loved the book!

These books look wonderful. The closeups of the details are truly mesmerizing!

I have found great books at thrift stores, too. Some are very obscure but the prints are done so well.

Thanks for sharing.

It feels like winning at the casino or something! (Okay, I have never tried that... but it's what I imagine!)

Just brilliant. Nothing like a good art book collection. That description of Mrs. Keyser made me smile, and your passion for folk art and Van Eyck is infectious.
