111: Sarah Matthews Printmaker Bookbinder Adventures in Arting Podcast

    • Hobbies

Mom and I had a wonderful long chat with Sarah Matthews.  I’ve seen Sarah’s colorful layered prints many times, but I didn’t know about her extensive work as a bookbinder.  On the podcast we talk about creating during quarantine, YouTube, artist books, and lots more.  Sarah has four girls and still manages to carve, print, or bind every single day. 



Sarah Matthews is a printmaker and book artist.



Her work has been exhibited in the US and is a part of the permanent collections of Yale’s Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library, George Washington University’s Gelman Library, University of Puget Sound, and Samford University.





She is also a YouTuber and a designer for ArtFoamies.com.



Some things we discuss on this episode:



artist books

book prints vs. wall prints

thrifting

Amos Paul Kennedy Jr.: “Put ink on paper every day.”

Hedi Kyle

As promised, here is Sarah’s flag book tutorial:
