Here's an 16 page artist book I made by hand from one sheet of handmade paper using fountain pen ink and gouache. It's titled “Mysterious Mural Number 2”. When folded my book measures 2 inches wide by 6.5 inches tall. When fully open as a flat sheet it is 16 inches by 13 inches. I call this artist book format a sheet book. As you look below I'll bet you can guess why I've titled the book “Mysterious Mural”
BTW This book is a small story about the creative process itself.
Before recently my artist books, like this one today, would primarily exist only in galleries, museums and libraries. While I love having my work in places like that I also enjoy getting to share here in a more personal way - including the lovely crinkly sound this paper makes as it's folded and unfurled!
I'm looking forward to sharing more of my books with you - including some downloadable ones! Your subscription is appreciated!
