Japanese art and craftsmanship has been a passion of mine since graduate school where my minor field of study was Asian art. My venture into Japanese book making was a challenge to myself. I had never applied myself to anything as traditionally demanding. Materials and techniques, for the most part, are from Japan. All images in the books are signed giclee prints with the exception of the final six volume set which contains all 90 original paintings from the Cloud Messenger project.
