Blair Mathews has written three books of poetry: "Remembering" with illustrations by Truman Lowe, "Seasoned" (with poet Donna Carnes), illustrated by Laura Bouffiou Jacobson, Steve Landfried, and Kent Mathews, and "Whipsers" with Zen Ink illustrations by calligrapher Kimmy Tran. Mathews revels in finding connections and oppositions in the natural world. A teacher of tai chi chuan, Blair is fascinated by the concepts of yin and yang: the interdependence of seemingly opposite forces.
