They Are Folded Into Gatherings • Rags Edwards

BY RAGS EDWARD

Papers are selected, painted and torn down.  Then they are folded into gatherings for pages.

Harmonious hand-painted materials are selected for applying to the cover boards, inside and out.

Bees wax for the sewing thread, leather straps cut and a hand drawn binding map for guidance.

A luscious bloom of watercolor to illuminate your handwriting.

A stack of my hand bound half sized journals with inset photographs and hand painted paste paper covers.

A stack of my full-sized hand bound journals with leather straps and hand painted paste paper covers.

From hand to bound, pages to contain my every thought.
