From the Bench of Lyall F. Harris

Welcome to From the Bench, SFCB’s series of short studio tours with friends near and far. From favorite tools to works in progress, you never know what you’ll learn about from these amazing artists.

This month we’ll chat with Lyall Harris, a book artist, painter, and writer currently based in Charlottesville, VA. Themes in her work include motherhood, family history, relationships, and the everyday. Lyall teaches book art and creative writing workshops and classes, most recently at James Madison University, the University of Virginia, and at the Virginia Center for the Book.
