Books in 2008

These books were made for Latter-Day Village and can be bought HERE.

These books were made just for the fun of it.

In December of 2008, I was asked by some friends, who do stain glass masterpieces, to put some of my books in their art show. These were a couple that were in there.

Wood cover with dyed green paper. One of my favorites.

I know this picture isn't the greatest, but I made up this criss-cross pattern for the coptic-bound books. One of the other teachers liked it so much she still teaches it to her classes!

Okay, truthfully, I have no idea when I made this. I can't seem to remember! But I know it's one of my earlier projects. Its covered in paste paper.

In a nut shell, paste paper is paper that is painted with a paste that is mixed with paint. The paste keeps the paint from chipping and allows the paper to be flexable. This was the first piece of paste paper I ever made.
