New hand painted books

New hand painted books

In the depths of winter I was desperate for spring to start so I painted myself some springy colours on book cloth and dyed some bookbinding thread in fun springlike colours.  I then went through the repetitive and mindful process of folding and tearing large sheets of paper to create the sizes of pages i wanted while the book covers were curing in the press.  So! I now present you a small collection of colourful journals or sketchbooks (each with a mini book in a wee pocket on the front).  All ready for your creative ideas, doodles and sketches.
