Art enables us to find ourselves and lose ourselves at the same time.
~ Sir Thomas Merton
Away to See is a series of gift books that live at the intersection of art, travel and contemplation, weaving landscape and figurative paintings with lyrical prose to create timeless sensory journeys through different corners of the world.
In these pages, we invite you to unplug from curated content, dip your toes into new waters, and get “away” from the everyday.

The first book in our series highlights Martha’s Vineyard. The Vineyard is well-known as a playground of presidents and celebrities, as well as for its rich history as an African-American enclave.
Yet lesser sung is the island’s natural beauty, simple pleasures, and deep connection to conservation and community. Away to See: Martha’s Vineyard illuminates this slower, more contemplative side.
“The images in Away to See: Martha’s Vineyard are iconic Vineyard: sunset at Great Pond, sailboats in the Sound, Chappy ferries criss-crossing. A reader can imagine a couple out at the scene, husband looking out from behind an easel and wife from behind a notebook.”
~ Martha’s Vineyard Magazine
“Away to See” is the perfect book to give to a summer visitor, as a remembrance, or to someone thinking of coming here. These intimate verses and evocative illustrations play together to create a vivid portrait of what it means to live here in the summer months, and why so many families come here year after year.
