disarming texture

Softcover · Leather string tie-off · 8.5 × 11 in (half fold) · 16 pages

An artist book that explores intimacy through surface and touch, where texture becomes emotion, held in quiet tension and restraint.

Each copy is handmade in Austin, Texas. Leather and binding colour may vary, and imperfections are intentional elements of the artwork.
