Not For Sale

This art journal is a very personal journey for me. I was exploring my strip collaging techniques and working to make statements with my work. I use so many materials that most people would throw away. The address book was a fantastic find. I love the size of the book. I’m very interested in aboriginal mark making and in the mark making of young children. I am not a trained artist, I just play. So this is just me talking to myself with paint, paper, scissors and glue.

altered book journal

9.5″ x 6″

2023

Recycled magazines, book pages, napkins and junk mail repurposed into a dreamy journal. The base is a discarded book. Collaged ephemera combined with acrylic paint, various inks and sprays as well as water soluble crayons create a visual cornucopia of journal inspiration.
