Artist Bio
Carol Norby came to Book Arts by way of a successful career in freelance collage illustration combined with a love of paper, imagery, and story. After years of learning the craft, she began experimenting with structures and content. The more she learned, the more ideas formed and begged to be created. From the mountains of Utah to her lakeside mountain studio in North Carolina the exploration continues.
