The Altered Page is sponsoring a second search for "Buried Treasure". Bloggers who have signed on are to go through past blog posts again and choose another favorite to re-post. Since my blog is only a couple of months old, I thought I'd dig through my stash of stuff & come up with some of my favorite pieces.
Over the years I have made quite a few altered books. For awhile it was my primary artistic medium. I have since gone back to painting and collaging on canvas, but going through my old work is always fun and fascinating to see what I accomplished and to remember "who" and "where" I was at the time.
One of my favorites is the "Not Your Momma's Photo Album".
How
are you gonna keep 'em?
Remember what our grandma's used to say? "Never air your dirty laundry in public?"
Looking towards the future!
The next photos are favorites from other altered books.

I never know whether to continue blogging or run back to my artwork after I've seen inspiring work! Thanks for sharing....
I played with altered books for awhile... but yours are not play! They are lovely and fun.
As an altered book artist, I was intrigued by your shelf of ABs. I thought they were so interesting, and the spreads you highlighted in this post were wonderful. I knew I was in a good place when I saw your blog banner. Simply inspiring!
Oh, too funny! Loved your style and humour and I love altered books, some of fav art! I will be back!
