About this item
This is a handstitched book which I have bound using Coptic stitch and cream waxed linen thread. This style of binding allows the pages to open completely flat. The front cover is a heavily textured leather effect paper which is lilac with a gold shimmer. The inside pages are mixed papers and include 140gsm cartridge paper, recycled cartridge paper, coloured sugar paper, printer weight 90gsm paper and some of my own unique monoprint papers (printed with acrylic). Every book is different. These books are suitable for drawing, mixed media work and art journaling. The pages will take some moisture eg light washes or fairly dry acrylic paint, but not heavy washes of water. This book is A5 portrait (height 21cm width 15.5 cm)

I love paper and I love making things, so making handmade books is the natural progression. I enjoy trying out different book structures and Coptic is one of my favourites to make. One of my favourite techniques is monoprinting using a gel plate and acrylic paint, and then using these pages to make into book pages. This makes every book unique.
