Paperblanks Midi, Laurel Burch Midsummer Night's Dream 5" x 7" Lined Journal

Love and its dark sides are rich themes in Shakespeare’s famous play—and also in Laurel Burch’s painting by the same name. Paperblanks’ suggestive cover hints at the themes by tucking its female subject—perhaps Hippolyta, Hermia or Titania—between vibrant butterflies and partially shrouding her with its diagonal flap.

About Laurel Burch: Laurel Burch grew up with the double burden of an unstable home and a genetic condition that made her bones prone to snapping. Her illness forced her to live with pain and frequent hospital stays for most of her life. Settling in San Francisco as a 19 year old single mom, during the turbulent and exciting 1960s, she scraped out a living, making one of a kind jewelry in her kitchen.  Her jewelry, made out of discarded pieces of metal, beads and other found objects, became hugely successful. A self taught artist, she expanded into painting and business, eventually achieving great success in both. Determined to have her art be an uplifting force for good she imbued each of her artworks with her unique, positive and vibrant look on life.
