I was lucky enough to get into a basic book making workshop featuring the outstanding Harry Bower from Island Heights. The workshop was great\, and I brought several ideas back to my classes and eventually making a pamphlet style book became a part of the fifth-grade curriculum. Forward ahead several years\, I had retired\, moved to Toms River and was a member the Guild. Harry Bower offered a nighttime class here in a variety of handmade book styles\, paste paper making and various bindings. I took that class with about ten others and a serious love of making art books was born into which I could incorporate my love of mixed media. I spent hours in my studio recreating ideas\, combing others and eventually built up a fun collection of original books. During Covid I started to do a lot of hand stitched projects\, and this led to the creation of some fabric books. It’s lovely to hold a piece of art in your hands\, turn the pages\, open the folds. Thank you\, Harry\, for your inspiration and thanks to Fran for being my mixed media buddy!”\n  \n \n  \nFran: “I have always been artistic and when I was in high school\, I realized I wanted to go to art school after graduation. I went to Newark School of Fine and Industrial Arts. There were many art classes\, and each teacher was a professional in their field. I learned a lot in 3 years. I went on to be a textile designer for the next 40 years. After retiring\, I joined the OCAG and took many classes there. I became interested in Mixed Media art and have been creating it ever since. I took a class with Harry Bower a few years ago and became interested in making books. Between mixed media projects I create different handmade books. I create handmade journals\, flag books\, and fun junk journals. For me it’s a great addiction and I can use all my “stuff” in the process.”

I went on to be a textile designer for the next 40 years. After retiring\, I joined the OCAG and took many classes there. I became interested in Mixed Media art and have been creating it ever since. I took a class with Harry Bower a few years ago and became interested in making books. Between mixed media projects I create different handmade books. I create handmade journals\, flag books\, and fun junk journals. For me it’s a great addiction and I can use all my “stuff” in the process.”

I was lucky enough to get into a basic book making workshop featuring the outstanding Harry Bower from Island Heights. The workshop was great\, and I brought several ideas back to my classes and eventually making a pamphlet style book became a part of the fifth-grade curriculum. Forward ahead several years\, I had retired\, moved to Toms River and was a member the Guild. Harry Bower offered a nighttime class here in a variety of handmade book styles\, paste paper making and various bindings. I took that class with about ten others and a serious love of making art books was born into which I could incorporate my love of mixed media. I spent hours in my studio recreating ideas\, combing others and eventually built up a fun collection of original books. During Covid I started to do a lot of hand stitched projects\, and this led to the creation of some fabric books. It’s lovely to hold a piece of art in your hands\, turn the pages\, open the folds. Thank you\, Harry\, for your inspiration and thanks to Fran for being my mixed media buddy!”\n  \n \n  \nFran: “I have always been artistic and when I was in high school\, I realized I wanted to go to art school after graduation. I went to Newark School of Fine and Industrial Arts. There were many art classes\, and each teacher was a professional in their field. I learned a lot in 3 years.
