Walking through the streets of Burlington, VT, you will encounter many wonderful things. However, one of the most spectacular sights is the artwork that is scattered throughout my town. This is why I put together a series of books of photographs, interviews, and commentary about the street art I see so often. Stay tuned and check back here on this post to see the latest.

What Readers Are Saying

“Carolyn thank you so much for your book, it is fantastic! The photography is beautiful and I loved each write-up about the artists. This book has extra special meaning because it has a chapter and dedication to Gina. That alone made this an exceptional gift. Thank you with all my heart.” — Evyl

“Carolyn Bates, the incredible Vermont photographer, has two new beautiful books ready for your coffee table!  And Volume 3 will soon be available! I simply had to write a ditty and let you know how to order them.

If you like books with lots of pictures,
Here’s what you should do:
Buy the STREET MURALS of BURLINGTON books,
Get Volumes 1 and 2.

Each page is a work of art,
Each page has a wonderful story—
Each book is filled with the splendid photography
Of Carolyn Bates in all of its glory.

And when you finish Volumes 1 and 2,
You’re bound to shout out with glee,
”That was a wonderful journey,
I can hardly wait for Volume 3!”

— Jerry Johnson, Vermont Author
