I am thrilled to announce that my limited edition artist's book From Inside has been selected to appear in Lark Books' 500 Handmade Books, Volume 2! The book's author is Julie Chen of Flying Fish Press.

The book's description reads as follows:
"Everyone who loved the original 500 Handmade Books will eagerly dip into this visually dynamic follow-up. Offering 500 stunning new creations by an international roster of artists, it showcases the unlimited creative possibilities of books as objects and as sculptural pieces. Along with traditional, richly embellished volumes, boundary-pushing works unfurl, scroll, and flip; feature improbable materials like metal, fabric, wood, and glass; and include lush, handcrafted papers."

500 Handmade Books, Volume 2 will be available September 2013.

My untitled book (aka "the dream book") was featured on the band OK Go's arts-and-crafts Summer Camp blog! Check it out here.

I am a featured exhibitor on papernstitch! My shop will be up on the site from today through January 9th.

Also, one of my photo prints (i crack the codes, you end the war) was selected as a daily favorite for today! Check it out here, on the front page of papernstitch.

The University of Florida's First Annual Student Artists' Book Competition Show opens Wednesday, September 8th at the George A. Smathers Library.

My dream book was selected not only for exhibition in the show, but also for purchase into the University of Florida's Special and Area Studies Collection.

The Artbound 2010 website is up now and the catalog of all the show's work will be available for purchase soon!

The opening reception and awards ceremony for the Academy of Art University Spring Show was last night and I was very pleased to find out my book From Inside placed 2nd in the Book Arts category.

Great susprise and honor!
