portrait:landscape ~ on its way!

The portrait:landscape book began its journey around the world today! Looking at the list of artists it will visit I wished I could travel along to meet everyone in person.

I put all the contributors' names in the front, added a table of contents, completed my portrait and landscape, and wrote a little something on a local postcard for the back pocket. Have a look!

End papers (front)

Title Page      

Table of Contents

My self-portrait (mixed media)

My landscape (watercolor)

Blank Pages 8-9 ~ for Chiori!

Back Pocket (with my postcard peeking out)

Now it's in the mail, on its way to my dear friend @hooka111. The journey begins! ^_^

  7. I'm thrilled that everyone is so excited and looking forward to the book's arrival to their own town. I had a good time making my pages and can't wait to see yours!

    Yuko ~ it will pass through Tokyo when @Juriko gets the book. But maybe later on we can have it be part of a show in the box gallery? ^_^
