A handbound booklet containing illustrations in watercolor and mixed media. A thread is connected to the top of the booklet. On the cover, a woman wearing red glasses is waving happily. The first spread is a home office with a desk, tv and fireplace, where arts and crafts can be seen on the floor. The second spread is of a kitchen. A man with dark hair and glasses stands beside a stove with a red hand towel hanging on the handle. On the first page of the third spread is a drawing of two red cars driving on a sunny day with a few clouds.On the second page is a woman meditating on a blue yoga mat. Her red glasses sit to her side. On the fourth spread, a man and woman, both wearing glasses, walk closely in a neighbourhood at night. There is a closeup panel that shows that they are holding hands. On the fifth spread, a woman in red sitting on the same beach as the woman in purple from Artefact 1. She is looking to the side and waving.
So in this one, the string that binds the book is sticking out, so it looks like a long bookmark that you might put in a book. Again, this, it's a rectangular shape. The sides of the pages are, and even the cover pages too, are not, are not even. So they're little bites sort of taken out. There is on one of the pages, a smooth, sort of, but crinkly material. Almost feels like a leaf or vegetation. And on one of the pages is like a, it feels like a set of glasses with a piece across the nose, and that's kind of a wooden material. And on another page there's a kind of a smoother strip of material. It feels a bit like a band aid to me, like that, that kind of feel of band aid. And there's also, let me see, there's another shape, which, to me, looks like the cloud shape, but it's an interesting shape. It's kind of a curvy front of it and around in the middle and then down at the back. And it's, it sticks up, so it's kind of like a wood, wooden material. And that's all. Though there's something at the last page, bottom right hand corner, which is like a series of tiny little bumps. You'd have to really feel closely to feel that.
