Artist’s Statement
Bookmaking has added another process to my vocabulary. I love learning to make different book structures and bindings. Taking prints from stashes of work, I try to find a structure that will enhance the imagery and add to the meaning of the piece. Turning the prints into a three-dimensional object that the viewer can handle, touch, and manipulate contributes another element to the work.
