Oohhh I love them! They’re so tidy... I make very rustic art that can be on the sloppy side compared to this lol. Yours are absolutely works of art. So precise. I can’t stand the thought of measuring and making things perfect like that. Like doing math homework as a pastime. Also I just made an accordion book! So much fun.

Well I’m fancifuldevices on Instagram if you wanna peek. I did a flip through. I only just started making books, I’m a jewelry artist usually but got burnt out after 12 years lol. But my aesthetic is very rustic and grungy, so be warned.

Omg what an honor to even read this sentence! I don’t know where you get it but I’ll take it! Also I had to google golub. Wow. So powerful. I guess I use art more as escapism from the kind of heartbreaking injustice he illustrates. Anyway, I love book art because you can be free knowing it’s just another page. It doesn’t need to be worthy of a wall and if you fuck up you can just tear it out or glue something over it. This attitude can free you to make some wall-worthy pieces.

Well that’s incredibly flattering thank you so much. I’m planning on selling my journals and I’m feeling a little trepidation about it. So thank you so much.
