Who doesn't dream of wild flights of the imagination ,while on a safari no less ? With this folded accordion book please getaway into the tropics and rainforests ,soar with ferocious creatures plus time with a contemplative Western Lowland Gorilla while he reads your mind ! And a glass of a very special rare wine helps you reflect on the end of the day. Animals have been in my heart since my earliest memories and over the years I have been involved with groups that help protect these magnificent creatures ,including owning rescue dogs and amazing exotic fish that were abandoned .Just imagine the unique pleasures involved with these endeavors too. Years ago while touring through Canada I discovered Spirit Guides from generations ago. Becoming more and more fascinated with these I researched that several generations ago villages created stone sculptures along a path to help guide lost travelers to a nearby village. Certain encounters in my life have given reason for these spiritual elements to be factual without going into further details here ,but who hasn't had that spectacular sensation of being in a totally known and unknown place at a particular moment of time ? Everyone ........... Many famous artists of the past painted over canvases used by others in order to feel a certain connection to another person and time period. My fortune led me to purchase this blank older Asian Folding Accordion Book and without a doubt our MYSTICAL SAFARI poured fourth !I absolutely love creating these and use only the finest lightfast materials combined with an Archival UV Fixative. During some research I asked 2 conservators at art museums about how they handled light conditions at their particular institutions, Their response was that normally the works were displayed without any direct sunlight for a period of two to three months and then closed off for a longer period of time. With these being mixed media also I suggest viewing at your leisure in different groupings as one aspect that I enjoy is creating your own compositions as if a jigsaw puzzle collage .I know you'll cherish this adventure and SALUTE !!!!!!!!! **** --BUT THE UNFOLDED WORK HAS !6 PANELS TOTAL*** ( 9 1/2 " tall by 7"wide 112 inches wide when fully opened.
