In the Middle Artist Book Art Zine

In the middle or the beginning or perhaps it was the end, is an illustrated zine which follows a group of girls who set out on a journey only to find themselves confronted by another group of hostile girls. There is a battle. There are losses. There are no words.

This zine measures 15.5 Inches tall by 5.25 Inches wide. It’s hard to say how many pages it has since so many fold out but without folds there are ten pages. It is a combination of color and black and white panels. The cover paper is white or ivory cover stock, the inside text weight ivory paper. In addition to illustrating this zine, I print, trim, staple, and fold every zine myself.
