Altered Books/Original Handmade Books

This is a new page from my latest book "House".  The pages are all complete just have to finish the front and back cover.

This is a view of the out side of the altered book "Norman" and the fan fold book that is inside the AB.

This is an Altered Book of the art work of a wonderful artist and teacher Norman Laliberte.  It is a fan fold book made from the art postcards" that Norman gave me after a work shop that I took at Quartz Mountain in Oklahoma.  The AB is covered with hand made paper and beads.  The inside has an opening that contains the fan fold book.  Norman's work is incrediable, he uses all kinds of media to make his collages, he says he is a "banner" artist. I hope you enjoy his work as much as I do. He has his own website if you want to see more of his work.
