"Old books carry a history, not only the story written on the pages. Dog-ears, stains, a dedication on the flyleaf, a doodle in the margin..." -Cecilia Levy Today's artist, Cecilia Levy, creates all of her work out of old book pages and glue--nothing else! Her work is beautiful in a very subtle, very unexpected way, and of course I'm drawn to it because of my complete love of books, paper, and all things unique + different ;) Some of my favorites are below: Calming and serene, isn't it?
You can view more of Levy's fantastic "Paper Art" on her website. Namaste! Mary Catherine

I'm one of your juicy blogging classmates - and I just have to say I love your blog...and the art you've shared in this post is especially near and dear. I love to play with paper...making my own journals, artist books & fun cards. And I love books, too. Cecilia's art is very creative & interesting!
