Just came across this amazing book by Michael Glenwood. Illustrations & pages done on Rives BFK and tipped in prints on Entrada.
Created in 2008 for a Book Arts class at the
Corcoran College of Art, the books subsequently found their way into three different gallery shows,
accompanied by a full suite of 31 framed prints, and three of the illustrations
were honored by being selected for the Society of Illustrators juried exhibition.

The Australian based landscape photographer, Joshua Holko, has a new photo exhibit up at the Source Photographica in Melbourne. The exhibition was printed solely on Moab's Somerset Museum Rag paper and consists of prints up to 44" x 60".
After trying all the 100% cotton papers on the market, Somerset Museum Rag became his favorite paper. "Its simply gorgeous and in fact has replaced all the previous papers I was working with. I am now printing exclusively on this paper."
We couldn't have said it better ourselves. Click here for more info about Joshua's work.
