| Layout art book about the life and work of Ukrainian-American artist - Jacob Gnizdovsky - artist, graphic artist, master of woodcarving. The book has sections - parables, which carry the artist's statements about creativity, life. the story is told by the artist. The main idea is to put the reader in the place of a student who carefully follows the stories from the life of the artist and lessons in woodcarving. And his assistants - sheep, will help to understand this craft.
| This layout of the book is made exclusively in monochrome. This is due to the fact that the artist gained recognition due to the black and white graphics. So it was decided to design the book and illustrations in a concise, direct, modest manner, which was the artist himself.

no profession gives a person such an amplitude of opportunities, such ups and downs
the artist is forced to go to nature and look for a model there. or lock yourself in your inner world of abstract thought
when the works of the artist are not able to stand on their own two feet,
then no eloquence of the author is able to support them
New York as a huge platform that oscillates at sea. from each chip,
the human mass is poured in one direction or another and floods entire sections
I am an artist! I am engaged in the work to which I have dedicated my life
it takes a lot of love and respect for the printed word to make illustrations in this time-consuming technique
human life is only an imperfect reflection of his own dream
| Thank you for visiting my second little layout, I hope you enjoyed something
