About

Hiya! Thanks for stopping by my blog. I have a passion for bookbinding, printmaking of all kinds, and all other things tactile…and for this reason I’m finally starting a blog where I can post photographs of my work and share other amazing websites that I have found. This is in the very early stages of development, and since I’m a full-time grad student, it may be at least six months before I really have it going. But do take a look at my pages (below, or on the right-hand column) and enjoy!

    Hi,
    What an amazing collection of work! I am new to bookbinding so could you please give some examples of the type of paper and weight you are using for the book covers & the spine themselves? When I google bookbinding paper etc I only find places that sell them and not info on the type used. My concern is that if I use typical printer papaer (marbled by hand) the paper will eventually bubble or easily rip. Thanks for any advice you can offer.

    Lili,

    Amazing work. I teach bookbinding at the Portfolio Center in Atlanta GA. I’ll tell my students to check out your work. It is inspiring. Where did you receive your BFA and training?

    Thanks,
    Michael

    Hi Lili!!

    I can’t get through to you on email. Will you contact me? It’s Judy from the American Academy of Bookbinding. I love your site! I need some advice on an AAB blog, and I want you to correct the link on your site to us (it is the wrong address.) Anyway, hope you are well. Looking forward to hearing from you!
