Late night sketching for "Aliveness" journal.

 finished the tags:


 
 I went through my stash of what I call trinkets, which are little gems of experiments with my cutting machine and doodling.

1 cardboard tags


I laid out the things I wanted to work on. Cardboard tags and my favorite "teeth" cut outs.


Embellish the tags with chalk. Auditioning handmade ephemera.

How they might look in a handmade book.

    100 day project

    I really liked having a challenge, and so for 2019 my challenge will be 100 day project.

    Rules or limitations really help the project to focus and to get the work done. I am going to focus on handmade books. I will post other projects, but for 100 days I will be moving the hand made books forward.

    I will work 100 days but its hard to post every day, so I will have to play with what works.

    This will include a number of experiments that I want to conduct in the studio. The links to all 100 day projects will be posted here.

    1. starting tags
    2. finished tags for aliveness journal 
    3. cartoon bubble  
    4. painted tags 


      These are my inspiration. A variety of items I started, and I want to explore more.

      PS : forgive me for jumping in with a project already in progress.
