Rose I’m a huge book lover too! My hubby & I have a storage unit for BOOKS 😂❤️ Fabulous art books I’ll be looking for used copies TFS

[@RoseWildsmith]

Omg I need a storage unit for my books we are overrun in the house!! And I find it so hard to part with them 🥺

Another lovely relaxed and relaxing video Rose. We should start a peeling paint, rust and decay club! Seems as if there are a few of us out here - I too spend hours photographing old wood and rust - even mold!!!!😂 I love your selection of books. They are all brilliant but I particularly love the quotes you read from the last one. Spot on!Your videos deserve way more views - they are so well done and leave me feeling as if I’ve just had a cup of tea and a chat about art at your house. Keep going - your channel is brilliant.

That’s so lovely of you! I like the idea of a peeling paint and rust club 😅

Thank you so much for sharing these beautiful publications! I bought The art of looking sideways about 22 years ago, it's an awesome book.
This is a great collection you have 😍

[@RoseWildsmith]

Ahhh I don’t think I’ve met anyone else who has the art of looking sideways. Such a great book!

[@jayblue-cy5gr]

love these books too - especially the Sabrina Ward Harrison one, which had a huge influence on me. I feel like responding with some other favourite art books of my own...

[@RoseWildsmith]

Yes! Do it 😃
