"Blue Moons, Yellow Cows and Green Tambourines" is a handmade book that features artwork based on song lyrics that make reference to color. The book and all of the accompanying artwork (31 illustrations) was completed in three weeks, as an assignment for a workshop on handmade artist's books.
The book, which measures 12" x 12" features tipped-in plates with cloth covers and a coptic binding.
