Book Binding

I have just completed my four weeks, book binding, workshop with Gail Stiffe. I can now proudly say, that I have made five beautiful books. Each one a different style, ranging from traditional to something very modern and cool!

Gail is presently touring Japan and I am confident when she comes home she will have brought back a new lot of amazing papers and other delights.

Her next lot of workshops will be held later this year. I can't wait to learn how to make some Oriental books.

Darebin Art Show

Opening night for the Darebin Art Show at Bundoora Homestead is on this Thursday 2nd September.

Seems like a few of the TAFE Preston and Epping artists will also be exhibiting alongside my own work.

I'm sure it will be a great night and I am looking forward to it.

Hope to see you there.
