Lithosphere is a sketchbook style collection of drawings, photocopies, and appropriated/found encyclopedia pages. It’s named after the word meaning “crust of the earth” and is about the process of trying to collect one of everything. If you want to collect one of each of my books, don’t miss out on this one! From a small run of 65, only 3 copies remain 🤙 get yours this weekend at the @vancouverartbookfair
Ok here we go! The @vancouverartbookfair is this weekend: Sat & Sun from 11-7 and tomorrow is the preview from 6-8 pm. Come pick up a copy of my book Undergrowth if you dont have one yet. I will have some new prints from this book as well 🤙 VABF is at @emilycarru
I should stop posting about pots because the Vancouver Art Book Fair starts ✨tomorrow✨ but I’m too obsessed with these children of me and @mongeyceramics ... i even dreamed of clay last night
