From Autoliterate 

Over the last sixteen years, Basha Burwell, a Maine native–see her A House in Maine, (Vendôme, 2021)–has developed a very strong attachment to Far-West Texas people, skies, roads, light and shadows. 

The Maine House

 Thrilled to announce that our book , The Maine House is almost here - out June 22nd.

Explore the soul of Maine in some three dozen of its most original, authentic, and evocative houses

For several years, acclaimed photographer Maura McEvoy and art director Basha Burwell traveled the length and breadth of Maine in search of houses that capture the state’s singular character. These are not designer houses; they are homes created by the people who live in them, from artists to writers to fishermen, distinctive for their ingenuity, originality, and fierce individuality. Many are unchanged, inhabited by generations of the same family; some are ingenious conversions. These are homes that have a kind of visual wealth that money can’t buy, homes that define the very spirit of Maine.

Garnet Hill // Threads

Every once in a  blue Moon the stars align and I am asked to work on a project where I am given the opportunity to freely create beautiful images with a small photo team - its extremely satisfying and feeds the creative spirit. Working on this project for Garnet Hill this was just one of those types of magical projects . We created images for their  website and Threads Blog, all imagery based around Fibers they use in their Home and Women's  lines.
