Sharing the Love
When I started teaching The Art of the Book at Brown University three years ago, I became reinvigorated in many ways. I began making and showing art again, my love of books and printing was taken back to the first time I saw a press and took in the smells of a pressroom, and to the slow contemplative rhythm of bookbinding and the beauty of paper. It's no mystery how that rebirth came about: the students. When you teach, it's like lighting a match and putting it to kindling. I hope you take the time to visit CTO Books and Boxes to see how one student took the match right out of my hand and lit her own fire. Keep up the good work Caitlyn.
