I created this book out of love for my dear cousin, Caroline. It was a project created in my Reggie Ezell class in 2006. We were studying different hands and using different tools. I decided when Caroline saw some paper she liked while she was visiting that I had I would make her a little booklet. It not only holds meaningful quotes, but also some memories of our past that is sort of encrypted for only us to "understand". I used embossing tools as well as gouache and a C-Tech .25 pen, as well as Sennilier oil pastels and colored pencils. The paper used was from a stash I had received from a friend. It was from a paper mill in Canada called St. Armand. It was very luscious, hand made paper and I loved lettering on it. The gold I used was Schminke Pan Watercolor with Schminke Tro-Col powdered gouache added to it. Here is the site for the paper: St. Armand Paper Mill in Canada. |
