Artist's Books
I have made three 'Artist's Book so far
They are titled
High Street Houses
Totnes Castle
Images of Dartington
An Artist’s Book is one that has been hand-made rather than printed in bulk. The hand-made approach, in my case, means not only the booking binding, but also the printing of the pages. All the illustrations are printed using the same processes as in making my pictures - that is using semi-archival inks and high quality watercolour paper. The books are all supplied with a simple slip case.
The books, Totnes Castle and Images of Dartington, are made up of all the pictures that are shown on the Gallery pages. High Street Houses contains pictures of some of the fascinating, and often historic, houses to be found in the main street of Totnes, an interesting old town in Devon. These pictures are not available as individual pictures as they have been used in two limited edition collages, not available on this site.
High Street Houses,
270 x 175mm, is bound in a ‘soft back’ card cover and contains 15 pages with 14 illustrations.
Totnes Castle,
280 x 275mm, is bound in goatskin, with 19 pages, 17 half-pages and 17 pictures.
Images of Dartington, 260 x 260mm, contains 18 illustrations in 38 pages and is bound in hard covers with decorative stitching.
