The first activity was to choose a size of page you wanted your finsihed book to be and then to make some pages to that size using different kinds of papers. I chose to make an 8 inch square book. While we were waiting for the glue to dry we started the next activity.
Amanda introduced us to mark making using various tools and inks. We also added water with a brush.
We used a wax candle as a resist
Lots of my pages were more than 8 inches square so that I could have folded bits.
This is a brown envelope with added painted papers made into a mini zigzag book.
This is the start of a collage.
Remember the decison to make an 8 inch square book! Well this is it!!!! 8 inches by 4 inches
I folded the pages so that they were 8 inches square and then folded them in half to make signatures.
The large sheets of mark making were cut and folded to make zigzag books
And lastly I cut up the square I had done just with ink and water and stuck it on to Khadi paper.
Thanks for stopping by.
