Lorraine, thanks for your comments I have now taken photos of this work as it is packed and how the gallery would receive it, if i ever post it again. I did write the name of the work and my name and address on the packaging, but I don't think tho...

Hi Judy, Sorry to hear that you have this unnecessary problem. I can only talk from both ends of your problem as, yes this has also happened to me. A photo of the piece as it appears in the box / packaging is a very good idea. If possible, attach ...

I have just had a book returned from a gallery. I was pleased to have it back. I was not pleased about how it was packaged. I sent my book in carefully chosen packaging that was labelled with the name of the work and my name. The work is an instal...

Name of institution/organisation/press/studio?: Barracks Artists

Background: I was introduced to artists books at a weekend workshop at Wollongong TAFE by Robert Jacks in 1979, but I don't know if we called them that then. A few years later on I met Liz Jeneid who made books while at the University of Wollongong. I didn't make any books that I recognised as artist books till about 1995 in Alice Springs at a Textile Fibre forum workshop with Adele Outteridge, where I made a few books that I like.
I like to make installations, many of them now could be/are books.
My background is in sculpture, printmaking, textiles and artists' books. I have given workshops in printmaking; monotype and photopolymer plates.

are microfiche readers still in our library?

I'm going to see if our library still has the readers. i think that they put in computers instead in the last update of the space.

Single folded sheet constructions

I had a great day today folding papers and making artists books with Ed Hutchins. Linda Douglas organised a wonderful workshop and series of workshops in Australia and New Zealand.
There were 18 in the class at the NSW Writers centre in Rozelle. I came home with a folder of folded examples of books and ideas. Some I had done before but some I did for the first time.

Ed Hutchins shows us some of his travelling exhibition.

book publishers

OK all you publishers or owners of book shops. How about promoting and selling artists books in your shops. How good would that be?
You will get a new lot of customers

You are most welcome to visit my studio when you are in town. E-mail me at girlprinter@gmail.com and we can organise a time.

At 1:07pm on May 28, 2009, Sandra Wright said…: You're amazing, thanks.I love Danielle and Antheas prints and just wish I could see them in the flesh or paper. I will send an email to the group about my survey soon. Thanks again.

At 12:49am on May 21, 2009, Sandra Wright said…: Once again Thank you Judy. That is a great suggestion. Cheers ;)

At 3:47pm on May 19, 2009, Sandra Wright said…: Great thanks, I think Christina Cordero is another artist who uses it a bit. but I don't know how to contact her. I'm not sure if you see her often but if you do would you possibly ask her she would mind if I contacted her to ask her about her methods? The more, the merrier! I think her techniques would be very interesting too.

At 1:17am on May 18, 2009, Sandra Wright said…: thanks for having a look at the survey anyway, I'm going to write about some of the things that can be done with chine colle and related techniques, like Glen Skien's stamps. I love the paper positive screens in your photos, the colours are gorgeous and the drawers with sewing memorabilia are too; and i will come back for another look soon.
