Falling into Autumn is a beautiful book of prose and art from a printmaker, who inspires others with her personal encounters with nature, inspired by watching jays gathering acorns, and hearing owls hooting.
In the shady part of my garden, ferns grow. By the autumn, these same leaves are starting to go brown at the edges. This seems to be at the same time that the swallows gather to leave. Together with the ferns, they are markers that the summer has gone; that one season has finished and another is about to begin.
This book is one of a stunning seasonal quartet. Each title in this pocket-sized series takes readers on a journey through the seasons, taking in landscapes across England. Including views from the artist’s studio in Rutland to the low-lying marshlands of Suffolk and the windswept hills of Yorkshire. And over the border to the Scottish wilderness.
A perfect book for anyone who loves art and nature, with beautiful illustrations and evocative imagery. The book features over 30 of Angela’s favourite prints, alongside observations taken from her previous books.
