Custom Poetry Books

l have a custom project to show you today: I've been working on a cover illustration for a book of poetry that will be self-published by the author. We met at the Fenton Street Market a few months ago, and she was looking for a block print to go on the front of each book.


I carved her a rooster print, and then a separate block with the title and name. The letters are tiny, about a 1/4 inch tall, and took about five hours to carve. They are definitely the smallest letters I've ever carved.

  1. I can't believe you carved all those letters! That must have taken so much patience...hope your hands were ok afterwards!
