Description
Inked by Elsi Vasdal Ellis is an artists book layered with rich, colors. Inside, the pages have a circle cut out of them to see through to the other page's different color schemes and designs. One of the circular cutouts from a brighter yellow and green page, sits on top of the title page contrasting the darker blues and greens and a bit of brown of the title page. However, the title of the book does not appear on the outside title page and does not appear until the 3rd page where it was stamped on and bleeds through to the other side. The pages colors are slightly dull but range in intensity as some are brighter colors and some colors appear almost burnt. While the pages are flat and untextured, the pages look as if they have. a texture created from using crayons. As one flips through the book, lines and shapes appear on the pages. All are very angular and they break up the pages from being all the same shade of color. Some lines are thinner while some are thicker and make the pages look like they have cracks in them.
