Deeep in the basement of the bookbinders workshop an old man preserves the treasures of his youth....the pots of inks carefully distilled and hoarded, the illustrations collected over a lifetime, the pressed specimens dusty with age delicately preserved from his walks in the Black Forest. The tools of his trade,handles burnished through age lie on his bench and he sighs as his journal is complete....and now begins his long awaited story of the dark forest fairy and her enchanting tale. He lifts the pen,shakes off the ink..."Once upon a time there was an enchanted wood where fairytales were made....". Absolutely stunniing craftsmanship anď imagination,Jibid.
Lovely, lovely, lovely!!! I simply love the effects you get with eco dyeing!!! And the leaves on the side, and the torn edges!!! Your work is exquisite!!!
Jibid i must thank you for bringing me back to a time in my childhood when i would ramble through the forest all day long playing with my imaginary woodland nymphs and fairies. So long ago i had forgotten the feeling of wonder in something dark and rustic yet delicate and beautiful. Your art truly touched my heart.
Lori Uba oh Lori! You have touched mine right back! Thankyou so very much for sharing these lovely memories, that is so wonderful - and good for the soul. Much love from jibid x
Part two did not disappoint, Jibid! 😊 Hopefully, the journey will continue in a future volume! Thank you for taking us through the woody darkness, loved every minute! 😊
Exquisite work... the spin on the dark side of the forest is genius!!!! every page is a treasure...such mind blowing creativity. I adore the organic feel. Your ecoprints are to die for. Thank you again for all the inspiration.. wow!!! I sit watching with my mouth open like a goldfish.
You seemingly have no cap on your creativity and each new book shows even more of your imagination! I anticipate the arrival of each new posting as I know I will never be disappointed. Thank you for sharing with your adoring audience and for stimulating and tickling our creative facets and imaginations
Hi Jibid, this is so beautifully presented & I thoroughly enjoyed walking through the dark forest with you. I too have no sense of direction. I lost myself in a shopping mall once, wrong way. Your creativeness never seizes to amaze me. Another masterpiece to admire.
That is the most beautiful journal I have ever seen. You are truly an artist. You have such an incredible insight for beautiful creation in telling a story.
This book is to gorgeous to use as a Journal...the papers are so beautifully died, inked and printed I could not bring myself to write on them. And, yet, I want to...where else would I tell my dark tales?
Jibed, this is just one of the most beautiful journals I have ever seen...there really aren't words in our language to adequately describe this exquisite work of art - I envy the very lucky lady that was able to get to it first! Your work practically leaves me speechless....thank you for sharing:-)
Absolutely love this journal, you are such an inspiration, your work just amazes me! I enjoy watching your videos very much, thank you for sharing them with us.
I am in awe once again. Thank you so much for the videos. You truly have amazed me with each and every book and page. Thank you for sharing these beautiful works of art. xoxo Sharon
Jibid this is absolutely stunning art! Those skeleton leaves and transfers are beyond!! As you flipped through the book, I kept thinking about the time invested. What an amazing interpretation of the black forest....very beautiful, very unusual. I appreciate the dark nature of this one!!! Inspired .... xRenee
Well this was absolutely amazing. It felt like we were along with you on a magical story ride! Details, details, details. I adored every bit and I admire that you can step into any theme, yet completely remain true to your unique Jibid style! 🌳🌳🌳🌿🍀☘️🍃🍂🍁
Simply stunning Jibid, a lot of creative work gone into this journal, I could go as far as to say it’s one of your best you’ve created yet. Just gorgeous. 🌿🍀🍁 -Kirstie
Yes, another extraordinary creation! I'm also directionally challenged. 🤣 This is Jennie, btw. The box was from NZ, my Michelle Mooney journal came in it. I live in CA, USA. I'd love to be in New Zealand, however, and have a dear friend who lives there. Dizzied by your talent only. 😘💕

Old Book End thankyou hun that is kind of you to say so. I do find it hard I must admit! Though I know that journalers buy books like this because they will treasure them, and I know they will be a special item in someone's home, it is indeed a good feeling to share art with others x
Hi Jibid! I know you’re taking a break, and hoping that you receive this question...where can I order the Morning in the Pine Forest image? (3 bears in the woods) I’ve looked in Etsy and everywhere on the net!! Thanks a bunch!
