In later years, artist books have become my main focus. The books are produced with no plan, no goal, and no purpose. I'll sometimes start in the middle and work in both directions. It's all about trusting one's instincts.

 

With this as the guiding principle, I have arranged workshops for a broad audience: children, adults, seniors, families, people with disabilities, and professional artists.  The books are sewn together by hand, using traditional bookbinding techniques. Artistic content is then produced through improvisation, with no specific direction or purpose. In this way, spontaneity and a sense of play is the driving force of an expansive, creative process.
