Diana Bloomfield’s work was selected as a Work of Merit by juror Christopher James in the2020 Denis Roussel  Award.

This gallery is a sample of her work making books by hand.

“Letting go of subjective perfection… Such a great release from that pressure and the expected results of a disciplined and very eclectic exercise… to create something new every 24 hours during a year. In many ways, a perfect reflection of the Denis Roussel spirit. The Old Garden embodies this idea and easily illustrates a mature artist in graceful control of the medium. Great work!”  Christopher James
