Another Artist's book I made in 2013 with a lot of mixed media elements in it. I made eight of them (20 pages), all slightly different since the are each originals and handmade/hand Japanese stab-bound in cereal box tops. I also made simple slip cases for them.
Houses is the title of a poem and the lines are broken up among the pages. Most of the text is all letterpressed, including the covers, which are also hand die-cut, meaning I cut them out with an X-acto blade.
The book includes two original watercolor and ink paintings, a gouache/Sum-e painting, an original block print, two etchings on Rives BFK, an embroidered drawing, a removable 5 x 5-inch Giclée and handmade papers. Three pages are digitally designed/printed with Ultrachrome K3 inks.
