You never know when you will need an older image: this is mix & match time!
Loving mixed media! I could go for a 5 year school/apprenticeship to learn how to do what I want in one difficult technique, OR I can do exactly what I want/need/and already know how to do to get the end result I want! At my age, the choice is an easy one!
An Artistic Record of some Art …
I am using a handy craft kit (from Arnold Grummer) to make “zig zag” accordian fold books that document some artwork completed over the past 2-3 years. I have just finished my first book, Twig Tangles, creating two copies, documenting my Tangled Twigs series of mixed media works.
I purchased a kit for 12 books, so I plan to design 3 or 4 different books, and print extra copies of each. There are 10 pages per book, on the front & back sides of a 5.5″ by 24″ strip of lightweight pre-folded cardstock, and I am pleased that I can feed this strip (carefully) through my printer.
The front & back book covers provide additional blank space for art: a template is provided to help you create covers for the 24 stiff cardboard rectangles provided in the kit.
The last photo is of an altered book carved & glued to make a box, containing three tiny books printed with images of older drawings.

And then there is always “solarize”:
