The First Book is ready
May I present the first fine-art book my publishing devision has released: Artief.
It's about all artists from an art-collective called Artief.
This is a commissioned book but it's still my first release anyway ;-)
They arrived yesterday and I was very nervous 'cause it was the first time I worked together with this particular printer. I was anticipating problems as we're cursed: it seems that every time we have a new serviceprovider, the first job he does for us always goes wrong!
I had it with the digital printer for my fine-art pictures (more about that in another post) and I really was afraid for this book. That's why we set the deadline for the printer 3 weeks early so they would have time to reprint them if anything would be wrong. It seems we don't need it afterall... Would the curse be broken???
So here is a teaser... just a few spreads. The book is mainly in Dutch (not that there is much text) and costs 30 euro excl shipping.

Congratulations on your first release! That's just amazing, hon. The book itself looks stunning-- from the cover to the layout inside, I can tell a lot of hard work and thought was put into it.
This is definitely a book I'd like to see in person... Even the name is interesting. Great work. You've got to be so proud. ^______^
I'm blushing here reading all your kind words ^__^
The book will be available via www.mouseion.be after this weekend (I'm updating the site...)
Like I said it's a commissioned book so they had control over what was put in the book and all participants get some books to sell themselfs or give away as promotion.
There's also a local gallery featured with their exclusive artists, all others are individual artists...
