Art Project 2012 - June 17

Altered Book - pocket example for my altered book class - folded and sewn pockets

Day 118 Art Project 2012

Altered book spread in progress. I've made pockets by folding the middle pages down. These aren't attached, I'm debating sewing or stapling them. Colored with acrylic paints and distress inks. Stencil used is by Mary Beth Shaw. Work in progress.

Day 117 Art Project 2012

Altered book spread in progress. I've made pockets by folding the middle pages and using double sided tape to attach at the middle. Colored with distress inks and stenciled with punchinella. Work in progress.

Day 108 Art Project 2012

Front Page of the Doodle Altered Book, with the "rules" (not many) and the sign in card in the original library card pocket.  

This is a shot of all the pages I started before the trade begins. This book will be worked in by 10 other artists, one a month, so I won't see it for quite awhile. 

Have a fun altered trip, little book!

Day 77 Art Project 2012

Altered Book - torn pages that will become pockets. They are tinted using distress inks.
