The accordion style book on heavy wove Arches rag paper has 6 panels plus a center 3-page flag book section. There is a colophon page in the back. The typeface used for the letterpress printing is Goudy Oldstyle.
The book measures 11 x 6.125 x .75 inches closed (28 x 15.5 x 2 cm), and 11 x 54 x 3 inches when on display (28 x 137 x 7.6 cm). Edition of 10, signed and numbered.
My artist books, broadsides, and loose-leaf editions are published in very small numbers, as low as five. All are hand-printed and hand-bound (in the case of books) by me, all are signed and numbered. While I am trying to be perfect, I am human, not a machine. Some variations in the editioned work are to be expected due to the processes, materials, and the artist’s change of mind. It is exactly what makes the work collectible: each piece is an original work of art. The pieces employ printmaking like original etchings, woodcuts, carborundum, screen prints, monotype, monoprint, and letterpress. Rarely is any part produced using digital methods, and if so it is clearly indicated, and only when no other options were available.
