Book Altering Progression

( Left click on photos to see them larger )


This book belongs to Donna Sledzik, with the



theme of Halloween--




in the Inspiration Station group, books



are passed around each month so many will alter pages in



several books. I love Halloween images and looked



forward to doing Donna's .



The photos are all ones I took in Maine.



in Durham with the really scary



scarecrow where Steven King lived



in his teen years, to the center spread taken in



the window of Orphan Annie's in Auburn, Maine



where each year authentic vintage displays



look super and then there's the



what looks like a perfect crypt door for a



horror movie---but it's in Auburn, too.





Here's the book to be altered



The pages were covered and then folded



for unusual look


It DOES warn you not to look


in her eyes....





Yikes!
this would not be a good thing

I love the whole concept of passing a book around and letting each artist add their own personal touch. Nice job on the book cover. I want one of my books to look like that. Jill, your page is outstanding as I would only expect from you.
Your imagination is always on overtime.

What a terrific subject for an altered book, and the choice of the book used couldn't be better. Your additions are wonderful - appropriately creepy! nancy
