I mentioned in the comments back here when I posted on the final instalment on the collaborative exchange of artists' books that Annwyn Dean and I undertook over a year, that it might be nice to gather them together and do a post with them all together.
I am so glad I had that idea! I spent time with the books at the studio recently, and truly enjoyed having them alongside each other; and together.
Bringing them together, it was lovely to reflect on what a beautiful collection they have become; to look closely and see how we both approached the work; and to see how our signature looks appear throughout them all, despite our use of the other's papers.
It was lovely to look at them as a collection and see how well they sit together; but also lovely to re-consider each of them as individuals and remember the moments of discovery and the things I loved about them.
I hope you enjoy their gathering as much as I did!
