New York City Underground




Next up in my handmade tiny books -- a collection of some of my  oil paintings of New York City subway riders, "NYC Underground Vol. 1."


There are 10 miniature prints in all, assembled accordion-style, just like my previous tiny book, NYC H20.  I printed the images on archival art paper, and fashioned the covers out of chipboard, covered with hand-made paper from Thailand.


Here is a composite image of all of the prints included in this mini book:


This tiny book is secured with a slim leather strip fastened to each cover. Signed and numbered inside the front cover, I've assembled a limited edition of 25. And yep, these are tiny, 3" x 3."




Available for purchase  here.
