A Dream of Water

1 1/8" x 7/8"
94 pages, 71 illustrations

"Cloud is the dream of water, as ice is its nightmare"

The largest microminiature book we've ever published, and with a correspondingly high concept: that water sees itself caught between the limitations of  ice and the freedom of vapor. In its solid form water loses its ability to flow, to rush, to spray, to change. As cloud, water can express its own artistic potential, forming shapes and colors of endless variety. The illustrations in this book are digitally altered to show some of the amazing variety of clouds as water might see them, with heightened colors, dramatic shapes, and slightly watery texture.

Quarter-bound in cream, salmon, and blue marbled paper with a spine of cream kid leather, and raised bands. The book has decorative endpapers and a paper title pasted on the spine. The illustrations are photo quality inkjet-printed.

Also available in miniature size: A Dream of Water
