A Mythological Bestiary

ABC11 Gerrity 1.JPG ABC11 Gerrity 2.JPG

“This book uses the medieval tradition of the bestiary to introduce mythological creatures from various cultures. I wanted to marry the aesthetic of illuminated manuscripts with more modern printmaking methods to create an edition that would maintain the feel of a hand written work. I experimented with a combination of letterpress printing from magnesium dies and hand painting to achieve a balance between technology and traditional craftsmanship.”

Letterpress printed text and linework with hand coloring in watercolor and acrylic. Text block sewn on
ribbon tapes and bound in a variation of a laced in case binding with stiff boards.
