Artist Statement

This book was created in 2006, 10 years after my first book (1996, the paper bag lunch book). It was made during a time when I was moving toward a Buddhist practice. My teachers and words that meant a lot to me are throughout the pages. I experimented with adding pouches and envelopes. I was so happy with this little book when I was done.

Materials and Techniques

Coptic stitch book bound with sewing thread. It is wobbly and wonderful, because I was teaching myself stitches with few tools or materials.
