I have admired
Amy Borrell's whimsical watercolours (aka
Cake with Giants) when they grace the pages of
Frankie magazine from time to time. Having a little explore on her folio site last night I found
this little project which makes me want to lock myself in a room for a week to attempt to replicate it!
Titled
'A brief account of a life lived so far', Amy has gathered her photos, letters and favourite things, ordered them from A-Z and then hand sewn the whole lot into a glorious bundle of a book.
& aren't her other illustrations adorable too. One clever lady, oui?!

wow, the rainbow spine of this book is art in it's self! Very cool project - i have always admired her illustrations as well :)

ReplyDeleteI know - the spine is my favorite bit I think too!
