I am currently involved in an "Altered Book" trade, where 3 family members (my mother-in-law, my sister-in-law, and my niece) and myself each have a book which we pass around, each person doing a page in it before passing onto the next person.
It is a fun way to share art, and also to feed on other's creativity. Working in someone else's space often pushes me, as not only am i feeding off the "feel" of their book, but also i am more pushed to be more creative in my own work...I dont want to put anything i am not 100% satisfied with in someone else's book!
At the moment (August 2007) I have my mother-in-law's ( Wanda Scott) book, and I am also working on a loose page for my niece's (Cameron Scott) book, as her book was the most recently started. My sister-in-law (Cat Scott) is working on both her own and Cameron's book, while Wanda is working on mine.
As each book passes through me, i will update the pages within each onto this site.
Finally after being stuck in the winter blues, I have started creating again. Yay. This is my latest entry in Wanda's book. Trying some new mediums, ink, and some new ways to create stencils...
