Altered book page


When I am in my 'down time' mode of art making (art not for sale), I love working on altered books. I've been working on one about women for some time now. The theme of WOMAN has so many way to be expressed. This is one page- sort of 'historical' women...long ago...was going for that 1400's European time...
I used hand stamped tissue papers for the back ground- painted with acrylics after I glued them down - a technique I learned from Anne Bagby's wonderful DVD. The faces I drew with markers and then painted.
