Calendar Girl

About

Through a series of compositions this booklet explores relationships between seemingly unrelated elements. It is centered around the female figure and depicts images rendered in several characteristic styles. The text accompanying the women is comprised of fragments taken from the Birds of the Eastern Forest describing them as if an untamed creature. The compositions grow increasingly dark as the booklet progresses into the late winter months.

Composed solely of illustrated, painted, and drawn components sourced from books at North Carolina State University Libraries.
