Book Worms

Last month I had another Bright Idea for a new series and I am beginning the preliminary steps to the first piece. I have never worked with Altered Books before, so I don't know how long this could take to get what I am planning to do. This is just the beginning of the front cover. I think the insides will take me a lot longer to complete.


I am utilizing tips and advice from other artists on how to proceed with altering a book. People have been doing this for years and years, but this is my first foray into this area. Wish me luck!

    1. Thanks for the vote of confidence, DM!!! I had no idea how much work it takes to cut holes out of these books. Wow. I work on it a little at a time and go deeper and deeper and soon I should have my worm finished and ready to add. Gee whiz......
