We love books


I am privileged to be a part of a group of book artists who meet monthly and share ideas and inspire each other.
They are:


Sandra Winkworth
Concertina book of drawings and found paper objects

Barbara Bartlett
This glorious book was made of tea bags

Bernard Appassamy
Sacred Hands: Shortlisted for the Blake Prize and Director's Cut exhibition 2009
Now part of the collection of the Royal Prince Alfred Hospital's museum

Upcycled copy of Grimm's Fairy Tales rescued from
a fence in Newtown: in a box covered in the same pages.

Lisa Giles
Lisa's piece is at the back - an origami chain made
from upcycled real estate magazine pages

Julie Bookless
Box and book made from old maps
Avril Makula

Mrs Merivale: a Flag Book with text from Leaves of Grass by Patrick White

Cathie Edlington
