In 2005, my book entitled Perfect Paper Mosaics was released through Sterling Publishers. Fortunately sales were strong and the book was also published in Italian and French. However, in 2008, Sterling went through a dramatic restructuring and downsizing of their arts and crafts division and due to economic reasons my book was not reprinted in softcover as hoped. Subsequently the book has sold out and even I cannot get additional copies.
If you are interested in learning more about the techniques of paper mosaic, you can try to get the book through inter-library loan. I donated many copies to libraries when I had extras and I often meet people at art festivals around the country who recognize my work from seeing my book at their local library. There is a slide show of images from the book in the sidebar which might inspire you to contact your librarian.
I have included a YouTube link below of my house renovation in which I created paper mosaic counter tops and several paper mosaic details. My home was featured in the January/February 2008 edition of Paula Deen Magazine and below left there is a slide show of some of the photography used for the article. The photographs were taken by Scot Zimmerman - a photographer of extraordinary talent who can be commissioned for architectural photography through his website http://www.scotzimmermanphotography.com/
It is always a surprise and delight when my work is recognized by award committees and the press. The following list represents such recognition and inspires me to continually push the envelope of both my creativity and humility.
