Children's Literature
If you are looking for a New Age children's book, this is it. Each two page spread introduces a form of water (mist, stream, rain, etc.) via a short poem which is centered on the left-hand page, and a full page reproduction of an oil painting on the right-hand page. For example, the mist poem reads: "Drawn upward / by warm sunlight, / in white-silver veils / I rise into the air ./ I disappear . /I am the mist." All of this is set on cream-colored paper. The paintings are New Age on the one hand, but also are somewhat reminiscent of the Hudson River School works.
