My prints are based on nine Haruki Murakami titles to turned into stamps. The exhibit's theme is (along the lines of) books or reading. Here's a look into my process:
Drafting and image transfer
Initially I was set to work with six titles but found it lacking so I ended up working on three more titles. The whole process of drafting, carving, and printing took around three and half days to complete.

I'd like to invite you to support the cause by donating pre-loved children's or young adult books or purchasing an artwork. To reserve kindly email the title of the piece and your name plus contact details at booklatfundraiser@gmail.com. Do check out the rest of the artworks on the event page.
I have another print edition of "Ohayou Murakami-san", "Oyasumi Murakami-san", including another piece featuring the stamps used to make the prints. These pieces didn't make it to the exhibit because its presently with the framer. I am excited to see the final piece, myself. I'll share the last piece with you folks once its out.
See you at Booklat!
