About This Item
Edwards, CO: Helen Hiebert Studio, 2010. Limited Edition. Original Wraps. Fine in Fine Archival Box. Limited Edition. Original Wraps. I've been fascinated with light for as long as I can recall. As a child, I always looked for rainbows, and I enjoyed trying to identify every color, from red to violet. This book explores the wonder of that interaction between color and light. As you flip through the pages, you will see 24 analogous colors (each new hue sharing some of the color of the page next to it). It's my attempt, as a paper artist, to capture the essence of a rainbow within the pages of the book. [artist statement]. Tight, bright, and unmarred. Paper wraps, embroidered elements, handmade paper; grey cloth archival box, printed labels. 4to. Numbered limited edition of 25, this being 10. Signed by the artist.
