“The Zodiac Constellations”
5.25” x 3.5” x 0.5”
Artist book (Gouache, Ink, Paper)

This handmade, one of a kind, artist book contains illustrations of all 12 zodiac constellations, from Aries to Pisces.

This book is a Flag Concertina, meaning it opens up and the illustrations, drawn and painted onto the little flags, open up in an alternating pattern as the book is opened. The cover is black paper with hand painted lettering for the title, author name, and Zodiac symbols. The end paper is a metallic mix of gold and sepia with a very pronounced texture. The flags are black pieces of paper with the illustrations on the outward facing side and the symbol of the Zodiac they’re showing on the inward facing side. The spine, so to speak, is a thick, handmade black paper with metallic gold polka dots on the outside, and some gold can still be seen when the book is closed.

Since this book’s illustrations were done by hand, this book is one of a kind.

It lays rather flat, but when opened can stand on its own, albeit at an angle, but would be best suited lying open flat on a surface or lectern. It is a handmade book and the spine, though thick, is still just paper, so it must be handled with care.


I made this artist book years ago, and even after such a long time, I still think it’s very lovely! It with be mailed in a small box with padding in a cellophane bag.

Shipping & Returns Policies

Shipping Policy

I ship out orders 1-2 times per week, so orders will generally take 3-5 business days to ship. All orders will be shipped exclusively via USPS, with different mail classes available for most items.

For international orders (any outside the United States), you may have to pay duties upon delivery of your order. I cannot collect duties or VAT for you at the moment, but I hope to be able to do so in the future for your convenience!

Please include your preferred name in your order if your preferred name is different than the one on your address: I like to write thank you notes for every order and am always happy to use preferred names, since I know getting deadnamed is unpleasant.

I am still new to Shopify and how shipping works on its platform, but whenever there are changes, I will update and amend my policies.

Returns Policy

I have a 14-day return policy, which means you have 14 days (two weeks) after receiving your item to request a return.

To be eligible for a return, your item must be in the same condition that you received it, unworn or unused, with tags, and in its original packaging. You’ll also need the receipt or proof of purchase.

To start a return, you can contact me at saullewisarts@gmail.com. If your return is accepted, I’ll send you a return shipping label, as well as instructions on how and where to send your package. Items sent back to me without first requesting a return will not be accepted.

You can always contact me for any return question at saullewisarts@gmail.com.

Damages and issues

Please inspect your order upon reception and contact me immediately if the item is defective, damaged or if you receive the wrong item, so that I can evaluate the issue and make it right.

Exceptions / non-returnable items

Certain types of items cannot be returned, like perishable goods (such as food, flowers, or plants), custom products (such as special orders or personalized items), and personal care goods (such as beauty products). I also do not accept returns for hazardous materials, flammable liquids, or gases. Please get in touch if you have questions or concerns about your specific item.

Unfortunately, I cannot accept returns on sale items or gift cards.

I also do not accept returns of any discounted or Seconds Sale items, including Mystery Packs of Imperfect Zines and Imperfect Prints

Exchanges

The fastest way to ensure you get what you want is to return the item you have, and once the return is accepted, make a separate purchase for the new item.

Refunds

I will notify you once I’ve received and inspected your return, and let you know if the refund was approved or not. If approved, you’ll be automatically refunded on your original payment method. Please remember it can take some time for your bank or credit card company to process and post the refund too.
