Artist Books are a wonderfully diverse genre and my work is much the same. I'm fascinated by structures and boxes, both traditional and invented. Most of the books included here have some unique sculptural or spacial element to them.

Specimen Series Artist Books

Specimen Series (20 varied edition books) Much of my artistic process involves creating an environment for found and constructed curiosities, as a means of comprehending them and finding connections between them. The structural and aesthetic construction of chrysalises, wasp and bird nests are a primary source of inspiration and inclusion in the Specimen Series and Metamorphosis Series Books. They seek to illuminate the beauty of remnants in the natural process of creation, transformation, and decay through the lens of scientific and naturalist documentation. Intricate boxmaking is one aspect of the aesthetic to “house” and protect these created environments. The finished artist books often incorporate components of handmade paper from exotic fibers such as raw coconut, milkweed, artichoke, and bird of paradise, as well as other natural materials such as cork, mica, sinew, and suede.
