It was difficult for me to "give away" some of these pages. I knew, when I did them, that they would be going around to all the round robin members and finally to the altered book's original owner. I had saved some of these images for a long time. But then I realized that I do have copies of all of them and that is, in a way, almost as good as the real thing. For in these images, one cannot see the globbed up glue spots, the hesitancy, the repositioning, the "do-overs". As long as Blogger exists, my work will exist!

"SAGE WOMAN, PAGE I"

I have sorely neglected this blog (as I have my book blog). Truly, what I have learned, belatedly, from other bloggers, is that it is hard to maintain one blog, let alone three.

These pages are from sets of pages (some how I always had to work in sets of two) I did for a round robin collage among six of us artists from March through August last year (although I really cringe to call myself an artist). I can't believe how prolific I was at that time. I have not gone into my "art studio" since last fall, when the challenge was finished.
