Spread out on the floor are lots of 7 x 10 inch pieces of paper which represent a full open page of the book. This image, taken in Florence is cropped to 7″ x 10″. When I stack a bunch of them on top of each other then fold the stack and bind it, I’ll have a 7″ x 5″ book. I’ll see only half of the picture of tables at the cafe. Now I need to add a picture to the other side. The couple having a glass of wine is a photo of a 5 x 4 foot painting of mine that was sold at the Napa Valley Wine Auction a few years ago. The colors and theme seem to go with it. I’ll probably pair these together.
I like the combination of the two pictures. What is the theme of your book? I wish you all the best for the new year Carla.

I don’t know yet. I think it is chairs. Actually I think the book will be titled Sit. It is evolving.It is a simple book but you never know how far it will go. And the best to you, too Otto.

I wish I was in your life drawing class! I’m a little far to participate – like an ocean away from you. I LOVE to draw. Yes, the book seems to be just started and tweaks my interest in where it is going to go. I think it is just the beginning of something. – artists’ book, paintings, a series of large drawings I don’t know. Thanks for the encouragement.
