BACK to the BOOK

look how thik my book has got now!!!! getting bigger. might need to re cover the binding.



What started out as me painting out some bits i didn't want in white then playing with colour after deciding to give up writing for the day.



this frame was a card which had a daisy in it. i found a sticker of a butterly in black and white then decided to go alittle crazy with colour.... whats new there then???

rooting through old work.

these little cuties were from a project i did at college a couple of years ago now... just showing my view of synaesthesia with a twist of threads and layering of marbeling.

this one is the best of all of them. my tutors loved the boxes because they are so quirky and showing my personality in my own mad little way.



a pentagon representation, as an experiment with a sequin flower in there somewhere.



and yet another one all together there were around 10 or 11 of them.

A close call at some detail work on water colour dragon eye.



pencil line eye.

another preview of my book



Amongst my usual mutterings and rambelings i have been known to play with bright colourd paints, a bunch of gel pens and metallic pencils. oh dear, I'm starting to sound like a mad professer.

WALLPAPER!!!!.. i decide to go alittle mad with some wall paper in my book. the people who have seen it think it is awsom. i just think its a squiggle on a piece of wall paper.



The work station. This time at the dining room table.



A mad doodle i based on KANDINSKY ( http://www.arthistory.cc/auth/kandinsk/index.htm )

along side synaesthesia

Along side My random pages and doodles of my every day life i keep a diary... Its written in code... ive played around with it to suit me. and as time goes on i add bits of envelopes doodles stickers marbling wall paper stitching and other little quirky ideas into the book. Some could say it s a Waste of time.. Some say it is a work of art. Shall we have a look?



This is before I started to experiment with the book. As i wrote i had a box full of wax crayons pencils and felts, I doodled as i wrote. as you can see some times I don't write much. and other times i write forever. Depending on my mood and how much of a creative string I am having.



Kiddies, AVERT YOUR EYES.... *giggles* just a little something I did when bord one lunch time at college having a break from my essay writing.



The Koi Karp. A sign of Good luck. It isn't the best attempt i have at these pretty fish. But like the others it has roughly 5 or 6 layers of paint just on the scales.
