Thanks to everyone who entered the September Twelve Months of Paper Giveaway featuring a Bookbinder’s Delight from Colophon Book Arts Supply. And the winner is … Ryan Roberts. Congratulations!
What a thrill it is to have people from all over the country (and one from Japan) come together in my studio for the 5th annual Red Cliff Paper Retreat. Read all about it here and maybe you’d like to join us next year!
Have you made the September project in the Twelve Months of Paper calendar yet? I’d love to see a photo of your Twisting Light. The 2019 calendars are at the printer and will be available next month!

I have yet to the visit Getty Research Institute, but if I were closer to LA, I’d hop right over to see the Artists and their Books / Books and Their Artists exhibition. I love this story behind a book by Andrea Bowers: at her high school in Ohio, the girls had to make scrapbooks for the athletes at her school (“whaaaaa?”). Instead of parting with hers, she kept it, not willing to give up her creative labor in support of an outmoded patriarchal trope. And that’s when she became a feminist. Below you see another book structure by Bowers with a cool structure.
Andrea Bowers, “Labor Is Entitled to All It Creates” (2012), Published by Susanne Vielmetter Los Angeles Projects, Los Angeles, Flyers and printed ephemera, Colby poster stock. Edition of 2
Pushing Paper: Realizing the Potential of the Medium is currently on view at the Barrett Art Center in Poughkeepsie, NY. Juried by Paul Wong, this show is up through September 22nd and features 45 artists from around the world.
