Natalie is collecting hand drawn maps for her project, I'll try my best to send her something back. I'm thinking of something about the intricate Tokyo metro, let's see. 
Thanks for the invite and the map to the studio, Natalie!

These two are "companion" pieces, as it is "my man with the blue beret" and his "house". Asemic writings are

stamped throughout and haptic textures abound!…

An amazing little boekie from Lesley with her recycled drawings that spread to both

the front and back cover, revealing a man of strong character and stance.

I was captivated by the expressive line and tone design of the details of the…

This golden lion with snakes coming forth is a four-part folded image of the new boekie that
