Portfolio - Book Making

My passion for owning and reading books has translated into a love for making books over the last few years. Making books is a tremendously creative art form - and practical! The books shown here are mostly my more unusual projects using altered cigar boxes, cigarette tins, AOL CD tins, etc. as the book "cover". I also do more traditional book making.
