Final Exam

A review of the recent exhibition "Below the Surface" which included two of my artist books (Billboard and Underground) just appeared online on examiner.com and can be found here. The review also includes a brief slide show highlighting some of the books that were exhibited.

Opening Day

The opening of Below the Surface was held this past Saturday. The show was co-sponsored by The Book Arts Round Table and The Printmaking Council of New Jersey and was held at PCNJ.


I was happy to be there to experience an exhibition from the other side. Thirty seven books created by twenty three artists were on display and so many different styles of book arts were represented. There were books made from paper, metal, felt, wood, mica, and other materials. And every type of binding seemed to be on display.



The opening was well attended and I was lucky to have met many, very welcoming books artists.





I am happy to be able to share with you the fact that my book Undergound sold.


Billboard remains available and is for sale at the price of $210. If anybody out there is interested in purchasing this book, please send me an email. Sold. Thank you!


The exhibition runs through December 5. Stop by if you are in the neighborhood. You can find directions in PCNJ's website.

Underneath it All

The second book that is being shown as part of the exhibition "Below the Surface" may also be familiar to some of you, as it has been previously posted on my blog. It is "Underground" - my hand bound book of altered photographs celebrating the urban beauty of New York City. All the photographs were shot in New York to capture the impact of time, change, and movement.




I am glad that this exhibit has given me an opportunity to once again showcase this book and to unearth the layers that exist in this special city!







Sold. Thank you!

Below the Surface

I am happy to be able to share the news that I have been accepted into my first juried exhibition. The show, entitled "Below the Surface", is a collaborative exhibition sponsored by the Printmaking Council of New Jersey and the Book Arts Roundtable. The original call stated that "entries may reflect the passive nature of what is below a surface, or the active process of scratching the surface of things to reveal hidden layers. Artists may choose to look into the layers of meaning, as they relate to our own personal experiences. How will the layers speak to you? What surface will you choose? In what way will you interpret what lies "below the surface."

Well, as you might imagine, this description spoke to me! I have two books in the exhibition and I will post them on my blog on Saturday, October 10...the day that the exhibit opens.
