Laurie Clark (illustrator). Proverbs of the Meadow and the Mountain (1986) is a collaborative work by poet Thomas A. Clark and artist Laurie Clark, published by Membrane Press. Printed on recycled paper, the book pairs poetic aphorisms with delicate line drawings, creating a meditative interplay between text and image. Evocative of natural landscapes and spiritual reflection, this artist-poet collaboration exemplifies the small press tradition of the 1980s, combining environmental awareness with minimalist design. A scarce and collectible title, especially appealing to readers of ecological poetry, book arts enthusiasts, and collectors of fine small press works. Author: Thomas A.
