Display Case

The Library's front display case features an exhibit by Easton author James Prosek which focuses on his recently released picture book, Bird, Butterfly, Eel. The display includes original sketches and paintings that illustrate the picture book in the form of double page spreads. Prosek's artistic ability is extraordinary. The watercolors are bright and colorful and capture the reader's imagination. Also included in the display, are real life specimens which Prosek studied in order to recreate the intricate detail of nature's creatures. The exhibit is accessible from May 21st thru June 30th during Library hours.
