My Book is filling up

Agate
In Project Pack 09 we drew some malachite with green pens and Auras. I enjoyed it so much I did a few more, one in my 'Book'. It's not green, so it's really more like agate.

Joy
I accepted a challenge to record, each day in April, one thing that brings me joy.

Paradox
Paradox is one of many favorite tangles, and I've been having fun recently with crazy Paradox. I did a page of this tangle: classic in squares, classic in triangles, striped, shaved and crazy.

Dancers
I've occasionally used styrofoam food trays to make mono-prints which I then draw on and define. At one point I sold quite a number to small magazines. I wanted to include this technique in my book as one of the methods I've used throughout my art life.

Three more Book pages

Here are a few more pages from my Book - not a journal, not a sketchbook, but full of wonderful things!

Years ago I did a whole series of work using leaf prints. I wanted to include that idea in my Book. Another thing I've occasionally enjoyed is micrography so I found a quotation I like that mentions leaves.

As a tea lover from 'way back, I decided to do a page of tea labels. I've added a couple of small things since I took this photo.

On this page I used a broken copper bracelet as a template for the spirals. The corners are cut off the page showing the black edge from the following page.
