production line...

I'm madly trying to get my second (of three) BAO editions completed by the new year 

yesterday was a flurry of printing

today has been filled with trimming, scoring, folding and collating

here's a sneaky peek of what I've been working on 

for BAO edition 4, group 3...

the little pages are waiting for the next bit -
the collating and assembly of the inner gizzards of the book

(I'm convinced that 'gizzards' should be a book term....)

time to get my nose back to the grindstone!

art gesture sunday - week 50...

On the 12th day of the 12th month in the 12th year of the twenty first century...

family and friends gathered on the windy beach 

to witness the marriage of our gorgeous niece - T.N.
to her wonderful man - M.E.

I commemorated the moment with a red-edged book

then capture the spirit of the day on the beach...

one red edged book

Camel Rock, Bermagui

one bride, one groom

one happy gathering of family and friends

Curse on all laws but those which love has made!
Love, free as air at sight of human ties,
Spreads his light wings, and in a moment flies.

I'm hard at 'work' in the studio....

thinking and playing and playing and thinking

on a roll...

I'm currently working on a second small book edition for BAO

things are going surprisingly quite well....

this is a little something I'm currently fiddling with 

in response to the title 'knowledge' 

I've got a few images and the book form kinda sorted already

stay tuned for more developments....
