I’d like to welcome local Portland artist Ryan Bubnis to the Engrave Your Book leather Moleskine cover collection. The cover pictured above is laser engraved onto a vegetable tanned leather cover and is now available here. Ryan has an opening reception at Nemo in Portland this Friday.

Junichi Tsuneoka was born and raised in Japan and upon graduating Waseda University in Tokyo, he moved to the USA. Junichi established a style often recognized as “California Roll Stylie,” the result of both visual and conceptual fusion of Japanese pop culture and U.S. urban culture. He’s currently busy creating unique character designs for his Seattle-based STUDIO STUBBORN SIDEBURN.

If you’re in Barcelona from now until March 3rd make sure to check out Rojo Gallery. There you’ll find on display the work of Engrave Your Book artist, Justine Ashbee. Justine is known for her large scale free-form sharpie drawings. “I begin with a curve, from which lines and forms begin to emerge, evolve, morph, and grow organically, in an intuitive flow, while maintaining delicate, elegant precision.” Here are a few close-up shots of a 3×7m mural she created for the exhibit with paint pens and china markers:

If the Iberian peninsula isn’t in the cards this spring, you can still enjoy Justine’s ‘amorphous entities’ at www.justineashbee.com or on your personal leather moleskin cover. Congratulations on your first solo European show Justine!

Engrave Your Book is back in action! After discovering that laser engraving art directly onto PVC Moleskines is an unsafe manufacturing process, we’ve developed USA-made leather covers which slip seamlessly over Moleskine notebooks. Not only do the leather covers look incredible engraved, they’re reusable and will only get better with age. Currently, we are only offering pocket-size covers; the large covers will be available early February.

The cover above, by Option-G, is just one of many featured designs in the new artist series. The designs below are by Justine Ashbee, Dan Funderburgh, Cole Gerst, and Alisha Wessler.
