Byzantium, Faith & Power



Now that the painting is looking so bad, I've turned to reading again.

The current reading material -- miniatures, Medieval art, and icons are a few of my long time favorite subjects. This is the catalog for an exhibit at the Metropolitan Museum of Art a few years back that I wish I could've seen. Finally got it out of the library on Sat and have been going through it as time allows. I'm taking a Byzantine bookbinding class in October, so this seems like a great time to finally be reading this.

And created the blog today. I've been keeping track on my own computer since August, but decided to try blogspot for a bit. That's why you see posts going all the way back to Sept 2 even though I just signed up today.
