My Book is nearing the end
Here are some of the final pages in my non-journal/non-sketchbook. The Garry oak is native to this part of the world, and I used a leaf from a tree near me to prepare four 'starts' in a collaborative project. I did another in my Book, more or less duplicating what I did for the collaboration.Over the past decade or so I've depicted many onion domes and wanted to include these in my Book. I couldn't decide which of the three crescent moon shapes to include, so I included all of them and have called this piece The Passage of the Moon.I took an online class from María Továr about drawing droplets (or "zengotas") with reflections. Of course, I had to include that in my book, too. This is on the inside front cover (I'm filling all possible places!) The photo is a bit too bright.I have something quite special planned for a final two-page spread, something I've never tried before!*********For previous Book pages, check these posts:How it beganNext stepsInserting an eco-dyed paperBack cover, an alphabet, gems and paisleyHexagonsCeltic-style tangles, and W2Frontispiece and photos of my grandmotherSpace junkA sunflower, and the flower of lifeKnightsbridge and magic squaresMore space junkFor nowMongolian roofsCubine and FassettNautilusNotanical - combining Notan and botanical imageryAn 'oops' pageInspired by Project Pack 7Four more pages: twisted striping, and bordersThree more pages: leaves, tea, and spiralsA month of joyA few more pages in my marvelous book: a dragon, neurographic drawing, and BrixBox/CantireFive more Book pages: Salt, Morrisseau, found text, flowers, and moreMy Book is filling up: elephants, a dinner table, and map tangling
