In Time for Valentine’s Day: My Work On the Web!
I have been long fascinated by shaped bindings, and heart-shaped books have become a large part of my visual vocabulary. This February, I have work featured on three different websites:
Batter My Heart: A Wall Street Valentine (below) is featured, along with an interview on chicagopublishes.com
Books of the Heart at Baylor University Click on the tab at the top of the page: Your Favorite Love Songs. Curated from the collection, Your Favorite Love Songs is the first heart-shaped book I made.
Finally, Love and Madness (which incorporates everyone’s favorite Neitzche quote about love) is the featured book for Feburary on Vamp and Tramp Booksellers website.

Baby (Not) On Board: The Last Prejudice?
January 04, 2011
My newest work, Baby (Not) on Board:The Last Prejudice? addresses the question of why so many people are angered by women who choose childlessness. The work presented here is part of an ongoing exploration of our culture’s pejorative views about women without kids. Gathered from interviews with childless women, online research, and personal experience, the comments are typical of an endless flow of critical statements that seem to be growing bolder, even as non-traditional families are gaining greater acceptance.
