Individual / Bindery / Studio

Eric Alstrom, a formerly-exiled member of the Midwest Chapter recently returned to Michigan, maintains the BookWorks website of his (can you guess?) book works.

Karen Hanmer, a book artist from Illinois, has a selection of her original books on her website, many published in editions and available for sale.

Susan Hensel, a book artist from Minneapolis, MN, has her own website and on-line gallery.

Russell Jurecki, a binder from Ohio, has a nicely designed webpage showcasing his journals, sketchbooks and boxes which he has for sale.

Leyla Lau-Lamb, a conservator at the University of Michigan, has several PowerPoint presentations online covering the topics of papyrus conservation and parchment making.

Joanne Kluba, Missouri Midwest Chapter Guild member, has an easy to navigate webpage showing many of the different styles of bindings she creates.

Emily Martin and the Naughty Dog Press has a very nice web page featuring a gallery, a list of workshops, and a turtorial on how to make an 8 page book.
