Altered Book

This is my Altered Book project. I took images and titles from a book I found that was copyrighted 1888. The stories in the book we're strange, as we're a lot of the titles, and the plates we're amazing. So I cut out a bunch of the plates I liked, and the titles I liked, and made my own little weird story.

Part/Whole Book

This books theme was "Parts/Whole" So I made a book of small little cards of animals that live in "packs"

Revelation Book

This is a small book, maybe 2"x3". The theme of this book was "Revelation", I decided to create a book "revealing" all of the bad things that have happened in my life over the past year. Needless to say, it's a very emotional little book, but one of my favorite ones.

Flow Books

Four books with the theme of "Flow"

I used the four elements to illustrate "flow" in these books.

New Blog

Hello all,

This is a place where I plan to post most of my work, work in progress, ideas etc. I do not have a blog solely for my work currently and find it hard to show people what I am currently working on. My camera recently "broke" and does not auto focus at the moment, so I will try to get the best photos I can with it for the time being. I hope you all enjoy my blog and feel free to contact me.

Thank you!
Bianca
