Printed Handmade SeedBook Sketchbook/Journal
With screenprinted covers inspired by the Japanese Ukiyo-e artist Yoshitoshi, this book is my favorite size for in the field work.
With a bookcloth spine, printed 100lb paper cover, and sewn with Irish linen thread, this Chain Stitch book measures 7.5” × 10” and is filled with 48 pages of 80 lb bright white Mohawk Superfine paper gathered into a single signature.
Each book is signed, numbered and stamped on the back inside cover and is part of a limited edition run.
All books are made by hand with nothing more complicated than a paper cutter. Each book is hand cut, glued, folded, scored, pierced and sewn at my studio outside of Birmingham, Alabama. While I make them in batches of ten, they are all unique and have their own character. While I strive for consistency in quality, doing everything manually naturally lends itself to minor unique features in each book.
