Imagine A Place

I had read about the book, "Imagine A Place" by Sarah L.Thomson and paintings by Rob Gonsalves in a Parenting magazine recently and so I was excited to find a copy at the library today! I have always been amazed by images that are able to "trick the mind's eye" and even did a science experiment in elementary school on optical illusions. I love MC Escher's artwork as well, so of course this book would intrigue me! If you haven't seen this book, or the other two Titles available, including, "Imagine a Day" and "Imagine a Night". I urge you to check them out!

  2. Ooh how pretty. I will have to check that out @ the Library this week. I remember doing a MC Escher inspired project for freshman year math class, and then again for my Art Survey class in College. It was fun.

  3. Awesome! I'll have to keep my eyes open for that one. I just checked and my library doesn't have it. Maybe I'll luck up at a thrift store.
