You'll pry my books off my cold, dead body. By the time you shift them all I'll be flat and dessicated.

500 Tiles: An Inspiring Collection of International Work - Suzanne J.E. Tourtillott, Lark Books I'm no tile expert, so I don't know exactly what criteria are used in accessing tiles. Technique? Originality of design? Complexity of process? I would have guessed some combination of those, but although some of the pieces here are interesting or impressive, many look just like the ones I can buy at any gift shop or garden store. And some of the images on them are copied from paintings -- is that considered legit in the art tile world?

I'm currently reading another art book from Lark and being even more disappointed, so I should probably make a note to not get things from this publisher.
