Oh dear Tristan, this is what we were meant to do...to make things that enchant, to create from our dreams. This is stunning and I have so many dreams I'd love to accomplish, but the fact is that I am working on one dream at a time. I wish I had the know-how to make something like this! Great post my friend! Anita
I didn't know anyone still made these! Those are so cool! I still have the pop up books my grandaddy made me when i was a little girl. And the moving parts still work, even after all these yrs. It was fun watching him work on them.
What a wonderful altered book. I don't even want to contemplate how long it took to make. Your blog is wonderful, Tristan. It is enchanting. I could get lost here for days.
Yes! Life does sparkle and shimmer and glimmer and gleam! And I love it! Whether I'm making art, working with fabric, paper, ink and vintage findings - or working on a theatre piece - or sewing like an ecstatic dervish on a new art quilt - I'm always attracted to what shimmers just out of sight...the ghosts of sparkle and the rich dignity of decayed splendor.
Sparkle!
Shimmer!
Glimmer!
Gleam!
