My one-of-a-kind books generally incorporate materials or techniques not readily adaptable to editions. At any given time, various books in this group may be in exhibitions, and some are already in private collections. I would like to share the photos and descriptions with you because these books offer special glimpses of my themes and bookmaking techniques. Each book description contains specific notes, but please check with me if you would like additional information about any of these one-of-a-kind books.
While I was humming "the ABC song," the word primary kept coming to mind: primary grades, primary colors, and the alphabet as our primary language code and as one representation for musical notes. All of these elements came together in Primary Melody, a celebration of our key steps in learning. (8" x 8" x 7/8")
Two photos of Primary Melody appear in 500 Handmade Books: Inspiring Interpretations of a Timeless Form (Lark Books, 2008).
