Sketchbook Project

Due to some poor filing, I failed to enter my sketchbook for the 2013 Deadline.
I finally completed it today.
It will become part of the Brooklyn Library's collection.
I've bought another to participate in the 2014, and this time I'm making sure I know where I put it!

Here's some of the insides:
















Hotel New Hampshire

I've been recycling / upcycling old books I find in the street.
I love John Irving's work, so I couldn't resist making something from the Hotel New Hampshire I found falling apart.
Here are two small concertinas (about 5 x 6cms).in purpose made boxes.











More books from mail...

Today I made a few books from mail.
Here s one:
It fits inside an old battery case, and measures 1 inch by 1.25 inches (i was using an american set square!).
It's made from the insides of envelopes I received in the mail in the last few weeks.
