Ants Admiring Artwork:
& Additional Animal Antics

“Ants Admiring Artwork: & Additional Animal Antics” is a semester-long independent study project exploring bookmaking through traditional methods. Each large letter and sentence was typeset by hand and printed on a Vandercook Letterpress machine. All of the illustrations, drawn by myself and two other classmates, were screenprinted onto the pages. The book is bound using adhesive strips in an accordion style, allowing the user to unfold the book’s pages. The content of the book includes animal alliterations as a whimsical take on a traditional alphabet book.
