Altered Book Artist. UK native based in Slovakia.

I like books, the moon, poetry, music, birds, dark chocolate, and kind people. :)

I've been creating Altered Books since 2012, full-time since 2020. I'm on YouTube to share thoughts, my process, and finished pieces. Portfolio, CV, and contact information are on my website.

I'm still stumbling around a bit with this book, but it's been nice to work on something that isn't for any particular project. Wishing you all a lovely Sunday. :)

Since I didn't have much to show you of my new work in the chatty video yesterday, I thought I'd share an image of my favourite piece from A Window Into. Wishing you all a lovely Wednesday!

Late last year I carved a book cover for "Alice With A Why" by Anna James, which was published this week. I recently learned about the window display for it at the Piccadilly Waterstones in London, and have received such lovely feedback about the cover itself over the last few days.

As a huge Alice fan, I'm so honoured to have my work placed on this treasure, and just wanted to share some of the photos with you all.

Peek at the book cover I've been working on for the third US edition of The Whisperwicks.

PS. I haven't been so active lately because I've needed to step back from social media while I work through a bit of a down period (feeling better!), but I'll share a few of my new books with you before my exhibition in August. :)

Sending my best, as always.

Since this video, a few subscribers have reached out to ask about my upcoming exhibition in Philadelphia - below is a link to the gallery's calendar.

If you scroll to the very bottom, you'll find my show name and can sign up for the preview release/exhibition date announcement. Thank you all so much for your kindness and support, as always! ❤

Just returned from my one month artist residency stay in rural Hämeenkyrö, Finland. I may share a little about this experience soon, though I'm still processing and trying to settle in to life back home. I hope the new year has been treating you all well, so far. ❤️

It's a bit of a tradition to end the work year with one of these videos now, so here are some of the books I made throughout 2024.

Thank you all for the love and encouragement, and I'm wishing you a warm holiday + New Year.

Best,
Isobelle
