| ©2012 Linda Germain Gelatin Prints and some book forms |
Today I went into Boston to the Athenaeum to see the Artists’ Books Exhibit. What a wonderful space to just be with books. The exhibit show cases books from the Athenaeum’s collection. Inspiring! I came home and played with a single page book form. I followed the instructions in Book + Art by Dorothy Simpson Krause. I am going to exhibit several of my artist books at the Sage Art Gallery, in March. I am excited about putting this show together. Must Run! Happy Printing.

I had some fun in the studio today. I am teaching a class at Lynn Arts during school vacation week – Shapeshifting – native american art in conjunction with the current exhibit at PEM. This project is going to be a totem pole of animal totems that are based on the birth dates of each child. I wonder what my tribe will be like. These animals are painted on recycled cereal boxes and then stacked. So fun to Play.

After a quick stop at the Wicked Big Cafe for a coffee with a shot of pumpkin, I was on my way to the Sage Art Gallery with this box of my books and I ran into a friend. I started talking about my art, my business and my need to set some priorities. She started flipping through my first book and told me to read it and then set my goals. Funny how the answers are right before me in my own work. Happy Art Making.

Today I finally got the gelatin out of the refrigerator and started playing with some prints. I was using 9″ x 12″ drawing paper and printing on both sides. I limited myself to blue, black and gold ink. I had a couple of “stamping items and a couple of stencils. I layered and layered and got one or two prints that are kind of fun. Happy Printing.
