Handmade Copic Journals

I love books. Always have. Then in 2006, I took a workshop at Haystack School of Crafts in Deer Island ME with the wonderfully inspiring Paulus Berensohn and learned to create my own journals!
Each journal is created with covers made with paste paper. wrapped around a stiff board such as Davies Board.
 
Within the book are folded papers with shorter covers. These are called signature pages. 
Each section of signature pages are sewn between the covers.



They Lay flat when opened.

I monoprint or paint the white pages!




Love those Edges!

These are beautiful, Wen. You were so lucky to rub elbows with Paulus Berenson! Glad you carry on a piece of his legacy.
