Inner Works - An Altered Books Collaborative: July 2009
http://innerworkscollaborative.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Monday, July 13, 2009. Today was spent working on Seth's. Book "Oracle Night" by Paul Auster. Seth's. Theme is Distressed Elements and I've really enjoyed working in it. The book arrived to me already thick with artistic interpretations done by Seth. I thought I'd interpret the theme by using words that come to mind when I hear the word distressed. I've used papers that I've painted and distressed myself along with some ephemera and found objects. Oddly enough, I've used the concept of time.

Inner Works - An Altered Books Collaborative: October 2009
http://innerworkscollaborative.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Tuesday, October 6, 2009. A Testament to Friendship. I received Veronica's book. And like many of us, all my original thoughts on how I would proceed changed when I received it. There's something so special about holding the book, feeling its essence, and then gently turning each page with such delight and amazement. There's such a special excitement and magical element of surprise to see what works of creativity will find it's way into our lives. More of my pages can be seen here.
