My biblionautic chums and friends.
Application of the leather and dye stuff (spirit)
A commission for a UK based Worshipful Company founded in 1528.
London Scenes.
Though I have very careful with the placement of the leather (collaged) it is only when the dyes are applied that the true nature of the binding will come through. Starting with a yellow dye, going through red, blue and finally black gives different tones of black. The different layers of paper, cloth and the grains of the leather add to the effect, all combining to create a unified fragmentation.
Please note there are other ways of doing things, binding styles and opinions..... spelling and grammar. Please further note, the opinion of the author may change at any moment. This is due to having an open mind... of sorts.....
