tiny books and asemic writing

I have three fabulous Fabriano tiny books. I have been drawing in this green book for three weeks now and I am almost finished. It is a wonderful object that has a seemingly coded story that can be revealed. Some people call this asemic writing it is an accurate description of the drawing in this book.

Making drawings that are also objects is very interesting to me. Books are a special love.

Series in a book — new drawings

I've made a series of four drawings in my new red Fabriano sketchbook. This is a narrative of sorts. This is a new project and new form for the measurement drawings. This first series is done with a refillable fountain pen. I can fill it to complete the entire book.

I'm starting another that uses a dip pen where we can see how many missives can be drawn with the dip of a pen.

 

polka dot pencil case

A couple presents that came in the mail this week.

A set of amazing Fabriano sketchbooks and a fabulous polka dot pencil case. destined for my art gobag. Thinking about little sketchbook projects. A book full of ink drawings? Tests required.

I'll have time in the studio this week.

Half the book is microperfed. Yeah.

 

mountain studio

When it wasn't too windy or raining you could find me drawing out on the deck.

I carried so many supplies and didn't use any of them. I have several small pencil drawings into my brick of a Fabriano sketchbook. I'm going to fill the book with drawings from the mountains. The framework is clear and so is the vocabularty. The skecthbook is a sampler of papers and I chose a color for each drawing. I've been doing this for a few trips now and I intend to fill the whole book. I'm going to take a couple photos of the book here as soon as I have all the things I need in one place.
