i'll take some better quality photos this weekend & put them on my website. this is just a quick jobby.

this is my first book...it's a pretty rough job.

the book:

15"x6", 12 pages.
cover made of these fake wool pants...turned out to be a pain in the ass due to thickness of the fabric.



binding:

did it all by myself - the stictching part was easy...lining pages up is fucking hard.

inside cover:


inside cover close-up:

did this with silkscreening paint and pens on watercolor paper [because that's all i could find]. i accidentally cut the paper about an inch too short in both dimensions so it isn't perfect - but at least it fit [i wasnt about to re-paint the endpapers]

front page:

this is possibly my favourite part...i just made it as an afterthought right before kinkos

and a few sample pages.

color page:


color value page:


progression page:

radiation from a point page:

this is one of my favourites as well.

back inside cover:


the guys at kinkos tonite were fucking great. Somehow, all the printing came out to about $18 total including another poster - so i definitely got some sorta deal - i think it should have been closer to $40.

woo!
