Front cover.
The paper I used was organic. I tied the pages and cover together with miniature dreadlocks of my own hair. Trying to keep it organic was the only sorta itinerary I followed whilst making it. I didn't like the idea of this project at first, as it's very very specific - create a book. As I would like to be painting non stop if I could.. so it is what it is.
Sorry about the shit photo. Bear in mind it's 4 past 1 in the morning, I can barely see and I'm not quite sure why I'm doing this post right now, I just felt like it.
This is a woodcut print. This is my most favorite print I've done yet, I'll call it Chemtrails.
This was the second print I got from the same roll of ink. I liked the way it looked.
When I showed this page to others in the studio, it got the best response. People seem to dig drips. I'm planning on doing a whole series of these. I'll posty when I do.
My house!
As far as I've gotten with it. I haven't shown even half the pages of the book, I just picked some that caught my eye.
Enjoy.
Love the book. The hair reminds me of victorian momemtum moris (the hair cut from dead loved ones), a beautiful personal touch.
