George. This is another one that I redid from one originally done in a RR book. To see the original, all of the flip book and read the survey click here. 

Vibrant Katz. 

Toothsome tomatoes. 

Rooftop Rockers. I couldn't wait to do this page when I found the words. It took a while to locate the rooftops that I could see in my mind so clearly.  

Portrait...pose. 

Pixelated Planets. This was a two-page spread in an art magazine. I just cut it apart and painted the background. 

Paisley. 

Sing a song for one! This spread was inspired by the directions in Altered Books, Collaborative Journals, and Other Adventures in Bookmaking by Holly Harrison. 

Name. 

Mushroom. 

Lovely Luna lady of the moon. This one is another one that I redid in my dictionary from one I did in a RR book. The original guidewords were lunar and luna moth. This dictionary didn't have luna moth, so I used moonscape and moth. We have luna moths on our window screens sometimes in the summer. I love to look at them. 

Maximum...measure...measurement...medium. 

Gypsy. This was originally made in a RR dictionary and copied here. I got lots of help from members of thealteredbooks Yahoo group in finding images. The dictionary I was working in at the time had several pages with songs. This one has Gypsy Woman printed down the side. 

Embroidery. 

Courtesan. 

Citrus. 

Heart. 

Gravitational gridlock - grief ground.

And the grief,

When it hits,

Is like a wave.

It pulls you under,

And keeps you there.

For a while...in a dark place.

The pain is a heavy weight,

Crashing from all sides.

Time ceases.

And then it eases.

Gradually freeing you

To return to the light...

Until the next swell.

Written after my dad's suicide.

Pear. 

Literary lions. 

Floral arrangement - summer color. 

Composition. I copied a Piet Mondrian painting for this page. This was the first page that I used acrylic paints on. I was really surprised to find that some of them were opaque and some were transparent. 

Promising, proclamation, propose, proposition, prospect. I challanged myself to use just the images from one magazine.  

Chamelian. I spotted this wild guy in a printer's magazine. The spread is my idea of a natural setting that would cause him to change to these colors. 

Styalized Bloom.  

Chess.
