Author Description

A beautiful representation of The Book of Proverbs--a book on wisdom, teaching humans how to live well in the world. This ancient book is not just a list of how-tos. It is a poetic art, using metaphor and figurative language to teach the reader about the nature of wisdom. Alabaster's approach reimagines the entire experience of the book. Incorporating images that illuminate the themes and messages of the text, this book will help the reader engage scripture in a fresh way. The Book of Proverbs in the New Living Translation (NLT) is great for Bible studies, church groups, or individual devotional times. Alabaster creates with the reader in mind--including careful use of negative space, legible typefaces, and layouts that allow a thoughtful exploration between text and images.
