Description i made a little book based on the song 'lost at sea' by the decemberists. to create a different atmosphere i built a small shadow theatre, cut out all figures of black paper, placed them on sticks behing the screen and took pictures.

this one is the same price as the one with the houses (fifteen euros) but you wouldn't have to pay extra postage of course!

It sucks postage costs so much ;_;

Maaaybe I could get my grandmother to buy it for me It'd cost way less to send it to Holland, and then she could bring it along with her when she comes to visit me in Canada!
I wouldn't get it 'till Christmas though.
LOL... that's a lot of work to get a book. I'm gonna try it!

it would be cheaper indeed, 3 euros instead of six...

the postage is more since the book weighs over 100 grams (and two books will definitely weigh more)

you can decide whatever you want, if you need some time to think about it ornorganize everything, i can keep a book aside for you! just let me know whic one you want.

I like the city one. And yes time would be nice I'm pretty sure I'm getting it, so you can safely put it on hold.

ok! which one would you like? the lost at sea one (with the black and white shadow puppets) or the paper houses one?

both are available from a limited print (five books) and assembled by hand (by me).

Argh I love that church.
Is that tree seriously a piece of cut out black paper? If so, that is eye-wateringly precise.

thanks!

the tree is paper too, and it's rather small (about five centimeters i think)

it is standing away from the paper a bit so the shadow is blurred out...

i can show you in person later this week! all the work i did this year is stacked in some storage room until i can give it a proper place, but it's no problem retrieving it.
