Altered Books

[wolf.]

I put this thread in Media and Arts but I wanted to see what more people had to say soooo I decided to try nsg.A couple weeks ago my photo teacher gave me the project of finding a book and altering it. Drawing, painting, cutting, adding stuff too, pretty much anything you want to do to the pages. Have you guys ever done this? Heres a few pages from mine.

Sorry a lot of the photos are bakwards haha

thats a odd assignment. seems like it'd be fun though. I'd go shoot pictures to go along with the story.

yea i have sorta done the same thing except i bought this book where it tells you a bunch of stuff to do with it on each of the pages. pretty cool, called "wreck this journal"

Seems quite nifty. Do your drawings have any significance to the story?

 

[a_pla5tic_bag]

that too.

thank you! And actually it has nothing to do with the book, the books in german and I don't understand german. For me I want the book to be really personal but you could seriously do anything you want to to the book. That's why I like this project so much I think
