Botticelli Squares
~ a sketchbook series ~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This fresh sketchbook series is greatly inspired by Sandro Botticelli classical paintings of the Renaissance period, containing wispy and natural elements and colours of warmth...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
SKETCHBOOK ELEMENTS:
INSIDE - 24 pages of sketching/drawing paper, bound together with green cotton thread and sewn directly into the pleather spine. This method makes for a flexible spine, allowing one to easily lay the book open flat.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
COVER - cardboard squares (15,5 x 15cm) covered in decorative serviettes. Real pressed flowers surround a print of a detail from a Sandro Botticelli painting which is stuck on a raised cardboard disk encircled by green variegated yarn. All of which is covered in an eco-friendly varnish.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There are currently 4 individual designs in this series with details from some of Botticelli's most famous paintings. More may be added upon request!
