Although most of my handmade artist books are typed on a pc and inkjet printed, some are made using my own handwriting, (Journeys 1 and 2, Journeys End, Eavesdropping).
Using my hands creatively through book making, drawing, printmaking and craft projects has always been a constant, probably vital, part of my life, so an interest in learning to write with my my non-dominant hand comes as no surprise!
'Teaching Myself to Write with my Left Hand' follows a daily practice over 37 days to watch my progress as I copy out alphabets and passages from books.
I found, as always, a repetitive task such as handwriting exercises, brought a quiet methodology for a brief time each day.
There is only one copy of this book.
