I have been taking part in a challenge set by Jean (Bluebird).
This month, Jean challenged us to alter a book to make an art journal.

I found my book, Sixteen Self Sketches by Bernard Shaw, in a charity shop.
It was just the right size for my first altered book
& has turned out to be a wonderful source of inspiration.

This is a picture of the book before work began.
This is the front cover now.
Here are a few of the pages that I have been working on.

so there is no "completed" project to show.
Even pages I think are finished, I find myself going back to add a little bit more.
