Text and Image Final

For this project, I used an existing book SAND by Will James and created by own story. For the "images" I thought the watercolor on vellum-like paper went with the feeling of my little love story. I also created a little portfolio to place my story pages in and I found book clothe which would best match SAND.

Artist Book Design Concepts Final

These are the structures of my final. The are fashioned out of twisted, glued, and sewn paper which I found at school.

And here are the finished pieces after my critique.

The criteria was that the project used a book process. I chose to use pages from a book and while I read it, I ripped the pages out (don't worry, I had 2 copies) and I made piles according to which character was mentioned the most.

The concept was that the "reading a book experience" (flipping pages) was changed into reading the character. I made three of the characters, from Savage Range by Luke Short, Jim Wade (the cowboy), Mary (the lady) and Sleepy (Jim's horse). I am very please with how they turned out.
