{"product_id":"home-an-illustrated-journal-9780578449685","title":"Home: An Illustrated Journal","description":"\u003cp\u003eHome is an illustrated semi-autobiographical journal by artist and\u003cbr\u003e author Jeffrey Schweitzer created between 2016 and 2019. During this\u003cbr\u003e period the artist spent a significant amount of time rebuilding a 1957\u003cbr\u003e Stearling travel trailer and using it as a mobile studio space in\u003cbr\u003e which to work on art projects. The text for this project is\u003cbr\u003e essentially a group of very short anecdotes typed with an old\u003cbr\u003e typewriter. All of the edits and imperfections in the texts were\u003cbr\u003e deliberately left in the book to embrace the informal journal-like\u003cbr\u003e quality of the project. Many of the illustrations in this book are\u003cbr\u003e very small pen and ink paintings merely a few inches in size. These\u003cbr\u003e originals were created using layers of handmade paper varnished\u003cbr\u003e together, giving these pieces a dream-like vinete that alludes to the\u003cbr\u003e idea of faded memories. When all of this content was brought together\u003cbr\u003e to create the book Home, it was organized more in the spirit of a\u003cbr\u003e curated exhibition of writing and illustrations only loosely linear\u003cbr\u003e but emblematic of a period in time and style shift in the artists\u003cbr\u003e production. This is the first time we see the artist typing stories\u003cbr\u003e directly onto very small, layered paintings and taking a more informal\u003cbr\u003e approach to storytelling\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jeffrey R.
