This painting and ponderings book was inspired by Ekphrastic Poetry - poetry inspired by a work of art. In it, I invite the reader to ponder my original paintings as prompt for poetry or writing of any kind, or simply as a meditation as you reflect on the paintings, the questions, or both.

Anniversary Edition-Light Through Open Windows
In this book of my original work, I celebrate more than forty years of exploring the world through photographs and words. I compare the earlier versions of B&W photographs and poems typed on the pages of printed photos through my typwriter, to the color images paired with new poems with the same themes, emerging 40 years later.

I am honored to have been asked to collaborate with Lori Ann on a book combining Lori's poetry and my photographs - moving through life.
Overview
Viewing the trauma of unexpected loss and betrayal from intimate and societal perspectives through words and photographs. This inspirational collection of poetry, pondering and imagery, "moving through life," guides readers along a path of emotions, from raw realities of brokenness to reawakening and hoping for a life that holds something better for self and others - a life of honest reflection and interaction. This book is one that readers will return to as they move through their own lives seeking answers to heartfelt questions we all hold.
"It's not too often that a photographer is credited on the cover of a book, and in this case it's completely clear why Sarah Routman's name is right there. From the exquisite cover photo through nearly every page of the book, Ms. Routman's images vivify the page, enhance the words, and help to create a unique reading experience. Kudos to the genius that brought these two together." - Julie Blum MSW, Psychotherapist
People are Talking
"Lori's decision to complement her eloquent poetry with Sarah's fine art photography has developed into a stunning piece of art, one that reveals how powerful words and images can be when thoughtfully placed together."
- Michelle Wood,mother, writer, photographer, teacher, and trauma survivor

A Note from Sarah: The French writer, Jean Cocteau said, "The poet doesn't invent. He listens." Often thought of as the 'poetry of light', photographs speak to me, often beseeching me to listen, to pay closer attention to my surroundings.
If you are interested in seeing more of my work, in purchasing something you see here, having a signed copy of the book or having me create something special just for you from any of my images, please contact me.
The creative process does not end when the paint dries. In the spirit of sustainability and not wanting to waste anything, I continue to find new uses for normally discarded objects. Paint drippings have become jewelry, paint-splattered paper towels have become decorative bowls, and bits and pieces of paintings, viewed through my camera lens have become cards and magnets, even clothing. I've started to customize computer covers, too. Connect and let's set up a Zoom call for your own personal shopping spree. No obligation - feast your eyes on the possibilities! (sroutman7@gmail.com)
