Tasha Tudor

I have been looking through a Time to Keep by Tasha Tudor and thinking about how much I have enjoyed her books and her way of life through out the years.  Having lived on the east coast for so many years, being a book lover and a homeschooler for many of those years I took for granted that everyone had heard of Tasha and her work.  As of late I have come to realize that many have not.  So I felt a few pictures of her may be in order.

Tasha was a well know illustrated of children's books as well as a woman who lived off the land in Vermont.  She lived a simple life filled with natural beauty.  All though I didn't agree with her spiritual take on life, her simplicity of life always intrigued me, inspired me and impressed me.

And thanks to one of my sister's, my daughter Emily has an autographed copy of a book that Tasha illustrated many years ago.
