Journal of the Moon & Stars

White Journal #2

Fish Journal #1

Here are three new journals (above) that I made recently for my friend and studio partner Carol Mylar. Written records of all of our thoughts, our art, our sketches, or our dreams are so precious and personal, and I believe that handmade books add to the sense of ritual.

 

I just completed these two journals as a donation to the Celebration Circle's Silent Auction fundraiser - sometimes we become richer when we give our work away for free in order to benefit others..

Haiku Journal #2

 Handmade journals are a significant part of my work - I like the simplicity and the usefulness of these little books. You might notice that I use fragments of their collaged covers for some of the graphic elements on this website. This is a project I teach to my students as an example of form and function.

 If you are interested in learning how to make your own journals and would like instructions, or if you would like to talk to me about making a special journal for you or a friend, e-mail me.
