While I was in Japan last year I took to collage as a fast way to get new ideas out and into the world.

I’d dabbled a bit with this approach, earlier in 2016, combining simple collages and watercolours in a concertina book.

The latest manifestation, an ‘altered’ book, has come into existence during the masterclass I participated in last week. I think it was apt when someone commented that my book was not so much ‘altered’ as ‘interfered with’.

Hahahaha 😁 that’s so much better than altered

There are things you can achieve with collage you can’t get any other way, it can spark such unexpected ideas. Interfered is good!

Thanks Anna. I am trying to make at least one page a day. It gives me a break from stitching and throws up new ideas.
