Recycle series
This unique artist’s book is bound with adhesive and uses an accordion
format to express the words and art. Images were originally drawn with color pencil and pastel and incorporate calligraphic lines, then printed on an inkjet printer. Using collage, both sides of the pages are components of the whole. First in a collection of small artist’s books (5″x7″) using recycled materials. Design and binding, images, handmade paper, and verse all by the artist. This piece was included in the exhibitio Small Is the New Big Exhibition (Juried) at the Rene Soto Gallery in Norwalk, Connecticut, 2020.

Yes, pungent smells of decaying leaves lay among fungi. I rake and gather. Over and over. It is all I can do to change the world Rake & Gather: Book 2 by Tina Hudak © 2019.
