Maine Media Book Artist-in-Residence 2022 Open for Applications

As the most recent recipient of the Book Artist-in-Residence award from Maine Media, I can highly recommend this to those interested in the book arts. Applications are due June 1st.

The award was very important to me as it started me on what I hope is a long journey of practicing the book arts. My time in the studio, and the guidance of Richard Reitz Smith, essentially taught me how to make a book. You can find out more about the book I created during the residency here (and if you’d like to see it in person, please contact me).

Book Artist in Residence

I feel like I’m at the beginning of a new adventure, as I’m excited to finally announce that I am one of the Book Artists in Residence at Maine Media Workshops + College for 2019-2020. I’ve been interested for many years in moving into the handmade artist book for my own work, and now I am finally actually doing it!

My residency extends until May 2020 and I’ll be working on a series of books related to my new Annals of the Former World project. Much more on this soon!
