The collage section of the new redesign of amanobooks.com is slowly filling up! The Keeper journal with a cover depicting a bee was just added. This piece is highly textured in contrast to the simple handdrawn and painted bee. The bee sits on top of a torn dictionary page that includes the word keeper. Of course, considering the subject matter, I could not resist and encased the cover with a thin layer of melted wax.

I remember reading an article about the vanishing bee colonies explaining how the honey bee is critical in the food production on this planet of ours. The humble bumble bee, the keeper of life.

This 6×8 blank journal is now available at amanobooks.
