111: Sarah Matthew Printmaker Bookbinder

Mom and I had a wonderful long chat with Sarah Matthews.  I’ve seen Sarah’s colorful layered prints many times, but I didn’t know about her extensive work as a bookbinder.  On the podcast we talk about creating during quarantine, YouTube, artist books, and lots more.  Sarah has four girls and still manages to carve, print, or bind every single day. 

If you enjoy the podcast, please tell a friend about the show.  This helps other people find the show.  Thanks so much!
