collage for Monika of Splendid Willow
A few years ago, I began creating
these mixed media collages on old
discarded book covers.
collage for Alison of The Polo House
I have kept a few for myself, but most have
found very fine homes across the globe.
for Swoonworthy's gallery wall
(this one has been in a few magazines, yo!)
(this one has been in a few magazines, yo!)
I use acrylics, felted wool, safety pins, vintage
book pages, vintage illustrations, linen,
silk, and egg shells.
Birds, skeletal ladies with high hair, crowns,
crosses, and poetry are repetitive themes.
for an upcoming art show
I am so fond of using these book covers which
would otherwise be thrown away!
And now that I have my copy of
Edited by Laura Heyenga
(Chronicle, 2013),
I am once again inspired to continue
this compelling art form.
Oh little paper slippers!
Prepare to be so inspired and dazzled
by the artists within this positively
magnificent book you will not
be able to put it down!
Any fans of art made from books out there?
Peace to you right where you are.
