A collaboration between two longtime friends who found they both appreciated each other's creative work: one a painter, the other a poet. Michael Baldwin, an award-winning poet, has, in the past, written poems for artist Johnny Bowen and his family for various occasions. In 2009 Bowen asked Baldwin to write poems for several of his paintings that were to be in an upcoming show at the Arts Center of the Ozarks, Springdale, Arkansas. The project became a labor of love as Baldwin saw the high quality and inspired vision in Bowen's paintings. In 2020 Baldwin decided it was time to publish a book dedicated entirely to Bowen's art and Baldwin's poems. The Sublime Landscape and Beyond is the result of many years of rewarding collaboration.
