First Paragraph

Christine Laverne's beautifully illustrated book titled Drill Me a Painting describes her almost 30-year-long adventure seeking to uncover mysteries of Earth's lithosphere buried deep beneath the ocean's seafloor. Laverne is a senior lecturer in geosciences at Paul Cézanne University Aix-Marseille III, France, as well as a watercolor illustrator. Her story is one that combines the personal with the science and high technology required for this type of adventure.
