Sedona AZ (March 16, 2015) – What happens when a popular novel is unable to stand the test of time and fades? This is the question local artist Stephanie Peters tackled in her series of drawings called “Illustrating Literature.” The drawings are now on display at the Sedona Public Library in the Village of Oak Creek this spring through May 15th 2015. The exhibit brings together a series of charcoal drawings created on discarded library books in order to reincarnate old books into new works of art.
