Inktober Day 9 - Pressure
For years, I’ve been using old yearbooks as weights to put pressure on book covers after they were glued. When I was working on a restoration, my woodworker husband made me this gorgeous book press to properly press the bookblock and cover. Teetering yearbooks weren’t working.
This is an original pen and ink drawing - part of my collection of work based on a list of prompts for Inktober 2021. Inktober is a free international drawing challenge created by Jake Parker. For each day in October, artists interpret a prompt in their own unique way.
