Splurging

Yesterday, Sweetie #1 and I went to Kinokuniya at Suria KLCC, a shopping mall at the base of Petronas Twin Towers the tallest buildings in the world for a span of 6 short years, and splurged on some books. 

So, here are three more reasons why I need to do something about my overflowing bookshelf.


I came across Patchwork Folk Art by pure chance. Lucky, lucky me. I love folk artoutsider artchildren's art and naive art so this was quite a find.




Beautiful :)


Silk Screen Basics by Ginkgo Press is another book I came upon by chance. It's concise with tons of visual instructions, a section on silkscreen art and interviews with artists. Love!


Print Workshop by Christine Schmidt was on my long, long, long list of must have books, so, I am really happy it was available. It covers a whole range of DIY printing techniques, it's packed with info, simple projects, illustrated how-to's and on the back cover it says - Uneven. Imperfect. Just Right.

Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! :)

  1. Promise to be great.
    I recommend the PRINTING BY HAND by Lena Corwin. Also helpful.
    I also want to buy HAND PRINTING FROM NATURE Laura Bethmann. It should be great and inspiring to.
