What a lovely video. I enjoyed her simple animation and haunting music. I have a fondness for book art that visually displays the contents of the book by using the books pages, silhouetted cutouts and things like that. I’ve wanted to decorate a Christmas tree using books, 3-D silhouettes created from the books pages, and gold or silver glitter. I just haven’t had the time to really think about it in detail so I don’t know quite how I’d execute it. I’m afraid once I finally have the leisure to construct some of the designs I imagine I won’t have any ideas to draw upon (both literally and figuratively). :P

By the way, did you read her bio on Amazon? It's quite short but I found it amusing. I was tickled by her description of her husband, "my charmingly straight-laced husband" and mildly envious of her "eccentric" life. Oh to be an artist...just successful enough to pay the bills, have a bit of fun money, and get away from the rat race. *sighs*
