A few weeks ago, I finished a five week bookmaking class at a local art center in my neighborhood. I have really wanted to do something with my hands and I've had such a great time making these books - it almost was like meditation. Doing it has helped me be more comfortable with learning from my mistakes. I'm so glad I did it!

I've included another photo of new books made from an arts pamphlet.

A collection of various handmade notebooks on a bamboo desk. In the top row are two small pamphlet stitch books. In the middle row are two Coptic stitch books, two medium sized pamphlet stitch books, and two large pamphlet stich books. The bottom row has two accordion style books, two stab bind books, and one smaller pamphlet stitch books.
Two unfinished pamphlet stitch notebooks made from an arts brochure in Chicago. One has a rainbow image of an a owl with the skyline of the city. The other is a yellow and blue poster for the Andersonville Midsommar Fest. Both books are on a green cutting mat on a bamboo desk.
Three accordion books. One is open with a watercolor drawing of Montrose Beach made by my wife with the text "Montrose Beach - Like Eternity We Stay Together" April 15 2023. On the right panel of the book is a watercolor of an image from the Chicago Cultural Center. All books are on a bamboo table.

What's a good instance to join for #, #, #, #, #, # ? Not for monetisation, just for... making things?
 
I’ve been feeling overwhelmed with other socials because I feel the expectation for creatives is constant “content creation,” with pressure to be an influencer more than an artist. hoping the lack of a competitive algorithm and perpetual demands for attention on # free me up to simply connect to people 😌 and maybe become less addicted to scrolling???

An early-2000s pixelated web “doll.” She has tan skin and straight brown hair and is making a peace sign. She is sitting next to a desktop computer with a tower and monitor; on the screen is a crescent moon and some stars. Above the image is pink text reading: Help! IM ONLINE AND I CAN”T GET OFF
