A few more screens and Pyramid Atlantic

Here are a few more of my smaller two panel screens. The inspiration for these comes from the format sometimes called "sleeping" screens. I think they would make wonderful enhancements to the home environment on a side table as a backdrop for flowers, or in the office to personalize a cubicle. They are two sided so you can change the side to suit your mood. I will be showing them at the Pyramid Atlantic Book Arts Fair in Silver Spring MD in November. Go to http://pyramidatlanticbookartsfair.org . This event is a great opportunity to see and buy the best in the book arts, letterpress printing, edition printing, decorated papers and specialty tools for bookbinding and the paper arts. I will be there with the screens as well as with my handmade tools Go to my Etsy site to see these wrenhaventools.etsy.com




This screen is 14" high by 50" wide and is priced at $400.00,
