Late to the game, apparently. Didn’t see this book until last night, and then I had to have it. I love it. It can make you look at the world just a little bit differently. How is it that you know, instantly, that the fireplace is a model? How many times did you have to go back to that picture and look for what clue gives it away? I’ll keep this book on the shelf above my desk, where my other “inspirations” live–I am puppy, hear me yap; Nick Bantock; Woodcut; Newspaper Blackout.
I have no idea of what this book is supposed to be. I’m not into fairies or miniature gardens or anything of that stuff. I am, most definitely, into color swatching, and I’ve been doing something similar with my own pictures of nature, using one of the paint company apps. (Hint: SW gives the most colors in a swatch. They give 7; the other guys only give you three or five.)
Bluebells in Great Britain yield much the same color swatch as blue bells in NC. (Ireland has, I suspect, similar colors as the peri-Antarctic Islands in the Southern hemisphere. Go figure.)
Absolutely lovely. I want that sofa. Given what you can do with digital printing on textiles today, it’s possible to have it, too.
Now, excuse me while I go photograph some peacock feathers.
