In These Places
An accordion book that uses photos I've taken, randomly, along with folded flyout pages that carry details of drawings and fragments of poems I have written.
This book was done to explore new formsI was learning about in a class taught
by Chang Yuchen.
The cover is printed on various colors of papers, and in silver or black ink and contains an etching printed on Gampi paper. All other pages were printed digitally using an archival paper.

Scribble
Scribble is an Accordion book that is composed
of 5 etchings and a front and back cover
etching. Some versions of the book are
hand colored.
The book is a playful meditation on the value
of allowing myself the artistic freedom
to be less concerned with content and
execution, and more concerned with
making playful and evocative marks. Originally
done as charcoal drawings, I converted
these to etchings for this book.
The covers are printed on Gampi and Kozo papers, and the book pages are printed on BFK Rives etching paper in various colors.

What Am I Seeing
In this accordion book I used 4 etcings to explore the different graphic
and compositional elements that
interest me when making art.
These images were all done from observation and utilized line etching
and roulette work to obtain the graphic results I wanted. Some of the
etchings are are also worked into
with engraved lines.
The typographical treatment was the most playful element. A friend reminded methat I'd been a graphic designer in mycareer and so I let the type treatment be less traditional than in all of my previous. books.
The covers are printed on archival paper of various colors. The inside pages are BFK Rives, again, in
various colors.
