Usually, i am averse to "cannabalizing" books to reuse (this applies to all books, even ones that I dislike- it is a quirk of mine), but, in this case, I think that you have made something extraordinarily beautiful! You have taken a bound book and taken it to the level of a magnificent work of art. I may have to reasses my opinion on reusing already bound books. Brava, madame, brava!

It’s nice that I was actually able to read about it though. x x

This is a stunning piece of fine art. I dabble in this and that media but I always come back to making artists books. I just finished a one signature book that I made for a friend, it was based on an Edwardian aesthetic . What I love about your book is the cohesiveness of the theme you've used two major elements the color blue and the U shape and added what I would call some commentary (white gel handwritings, some rust accents, etc.) that add interest. I could talk about piece forever and I know I will be revisiting it frequently, it touched me so deeply. I have subscribed and belled your name and look forward to spending a few days looking at all your work. Best wishes. PS I didn't mention the origin of the title because this comment will end up being a book but suffice it to say BRAVA!

Since it is essentially a book of art pieces, how much would something like this sell for?

@MichelleWalkerArt

5 ай бұрын

That’s a good question and difficult to answer as I have never considered selling this one. It was my first artist’s book and I have a general rule that I keep for myself my first of anything I make. That said, if I look at the no. of page spreads as each being artworks in their own right, and the no. of hours/days that went into the making over several months… the asking price would be many thousand. My artists books from a single sheet of watercolour paper (different KZread video) sell for about $500.

Beautiful!
