About the books
✦ Are the books hand-painted?
Yes! I hand-paint every book myself, one by one. Every piece is made entirely by hand, which means that no two books will ever be exactly the same.
✦ How long does it take to paint a book?
It depends on the design and the level of detail, but a book can take anywhere from several hours to around 30 hours of painting. I take the time needed to make each piece carefully and properly.
✦ Are the books new or pre-owned?
Both! Some books are bought new specifically for a project, while others are pre-owned. Either way, I carefully select each book before giving it a new life.
✦ Is the book still readable after being painted?
The book remains fully readable after painting. However, as it is a handmade piece of art, I recommend handling it with care and treating it primarily as a collectible to display and enjoy.
✦ How should I care for my painted book?
A protective spray is applied to the edges of the books, but to best preserve the work, avoid direct sunlight, high humidity, and extreme temperatures. Handle with care. To remove dust from the painted edges, gently use a soft dry brush. Avoid using anything damp.
