bookbinding play
My dear friend Drora came to visit me not long ago for our four day annual art retreat here at my home. Drora was fortunate enough to study with master bookbinder Tim Ely at FOBA in Oregon a few years ago. We made these little gems.
It is a nifty structure, unlike any other book I've bound. The process is addicting! There are more steps in the process than I'm used to, so creating multiples was good practice and experience.
“Being an artist is not just about what happens when you’re in the studio. The way you live, the people you choose to love and the way you love them, the way you vote, the words that come out of your mouth...will also become the raw material for the art you make.”
