My first three block prints turned into notebooks.
I made plain prints and cards too, but I’m happiest with these.

I'm still not sure what I'm going to DO with all of these as I'm not sure i could handle selling in any way. but I'm having fun and I'm not going to let that get in the way.

Babel by R.F. Kuang

Front cover of the book is the English title of the book foiled in gold. Around it are Bible verses in Cantonese Chinese (Genesis 11:8-9) foiled in silver.

The back of the book is a mirror of the front. It has the Cantonese title foiled in gold. Around it is the English translation of the same bible verses.

Epic: The Muscial Lyric Book

🪶

I hope this video will explain how the foiling happens. I created a design for the cover and printed it in plain recycled paper. After securing the foil to the cover, I lay the design over the foil and trace it with the quill, the nib of which is heated metal. It takes practice to figure out how much pressure is needed and how long the quill should stay on any section.

Epic: The Muscial Lyric Book

🪶

I hope this video will show the foiling process. I created a design for the cover digitally, then printed it in plain recycled paper (nothing thick at all). After securing the foil to the book cover, I lay the design over the foil and traced it with a foil quill, the nib of which is heated metal.
