Barcelona journals



A series of three 4"x3" hand-sewn books that I made while living in Barcelona. I designed the cover and end pages from empty bags of coffee and empty sugar bags.

The Chinaberry Tree

A 2003 Christmas present for my father's octogenarian mother, our family created a small book of stories based on my father's childhood. Truly a family collaboration: my mother was the publisher, my father wrote the story which my brother then illustrated. I designed a book cover and end pages using photos from my father's childhood, and then typeset and hand-bound together the stories into a limited edition of 15 books (4.5"x6", 42 pages).
