Books, paper, pictures and more

I love using books as ART materials. The book inspires and informs that art project.

Some books are loved for the covers.

Sometimes the illustrations and drawings can be used to make new collages.

I think the more I play with books and take them apart and re-form the parts, then the more ideas I get.

Children’s books are great for taking apart and using the pages, covers and words to make new art.

I find my books at the local library book sales. The books are unwanted and destined for the recycle bin, so I don’t feel bad about, cut, shredding and writing in them.

Do you have a few books that you would like to repurpose?
