9 months, 6 books
Full disclosure: any faithful readers might have noticed by now I am not a blogger. Posting every 8 or so months is probably not good practice by industry standards. Alas one must be honest and I just don’t have it in me to do anything daily, well except make things and eat. But I do know what I am: a maker and someone who loves to documents things so this is what I can offer.
The update goes like this: It’s been 9 months since I moved to the west coast, which really only means it’s been 9 months of being immersed in school which means I am finished my first year of a dual graduate program in book art and creative writing. This and a few following posts are what I have to show for it, at least tangibly. Six books. All hand made, all written, photographed, or drawn by me (unless otherwise noted). The first one, a storage book (structure invented by Hedi Kyle) called Shed or what falls away [or gets left behind], is shown below. It’s about a eucalyptus tree or it’s a love story or usually in my case, it’s one in the same. Happy summer y’all.

woah. this is the most beautiful book i have ever seen. everything about it is perfect. when you said “in the beginning, it was all there,” it made me cry. i thought how that was most most true statement i had ever read and realising that, it made me miss so much. xxx
