PaperbarkTales

These dark arts collide here in our observations of nature, science, time and upright monkeys. It started somewhere in the depth of time, like 2018, when Beth and Ashley had a discussion (debate? argument?) about whether poetry could or should be presented along with photography... whether one would detract from the other... Or would/could the sum of the two be greater? Since then we have been working together to find an answer to this and the evidence for both sides is (drum roll...) PaperbarkTales then is at the intersection of poetry and photography where it comes together in the form of art and design that is the wrapping of something we found important, interesting or amusing at the time. Speaking of time... it is one of the subjects explored in PapebarkTales together with other weighty matters such nature, life, and our place in the vast universe seen through the complexity of human thought and emotions... including a healthy dash of humour. We invite your feedback and if one of our poems, photos and artworks reminds you of a song, a book, a place, a time, a memory... we would love to here that! Welcome to PaperbarkTales!
