Took a wee road trip to one of my favorite Vermont bookstores - Norwich Bookstore. The kind of bookstore where people know each other and you hear book recommendations being swapped. #norwichvt #norwichbookstore #vermontbookstores #vermontlife

I have been waiting for this day for over a month! I am beyond stoked to have gotten my order in for one of these 10 limited edition resin prints - "Mother Mary". A portrait of Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley by @marcscheff.
I fell in love with this piece the second I saw it. It's absolutely gorgeous, but also...Mary Shelley! Mother of Frankenstein. Daughter of the famous defender of women’s rights, Mary Wollstonecraft. Writer of what many consider the first piece of science fiction. A novel "concerned with the destructive nature of power when allied to wealth".
Plus, I read Frankenstein in a literature course at my beloved Alma Mater, Smith.
From a post by Marc Scheff about the original:
"In researching for the piece, I found myself drawn to and compelled by Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley’s life. Her work is compelling, and the life behind it adds color and depth to an already heartbreaking story. I always love the story of creative work. Her capacity to create in the face of the events of her life, that inspired me most."
Sweet-peas, this JUST got released, and I know there's already at least one less available out of the 10 because I just ordered mine. Do NOT kick yourself for letting this one pass. https://www.marcscheff.com/prod…/mother-mary-original-print/ (photo swiped from Marc’s Facebook)

This pair of #marionbronze snowy owl bookends have been in my shop forever. They sold this weekend, and I’m super happy to send them to a new home, but also...they’ve been hanging around my space for so long I had grown rather attached. Going to miss them! #marionbronzebookends #bookends #owls #snowowl #harrypotter
