I am a student in the Modern American Poetry class at Episcopal High School in Alexandria, Virginia. My class worked on these books with visiting artist Wendy Wolf. Modern American Poetry is co-taught by Molly W. Pugh and Elizabeth Vorlicek and combines the study of poetry, from the Modernist era, with the studio practice of making artist’s books.

Wild Horses is an ode to both its Rolling Stones namesake and Cormac McCarthy’s novel All the Pretty Horses. It paints a tragic story of heartache and loss on the canvas of the American Southwest, the storyteller being a longing cowboy mourning for his “graceless lady.
