The subject for this book is my four pet cats. The entire sheet of paper is 11" x 17" making each page when folded 4.25" x 5.5". The images are white line woodcuts which means the lines were carved in a wood block and then each raised shape was painted with watercolors and hand printed with a wooden spoon.
