Thawing

Spring is on the tips of our fingers and I CAN NOT WAIT. While patiently waiting for spring in Pittsburgh I’ve been doing house cleaning of the digital variety. Digging through files I found these photograms. I think they were from a college design basics class.

I love them – their moody and watery feel are like my mind during this time of year. I’m in-between seasons and running on the fumes of last year’s summer memories. Spring can not get here fast enough.

Cloud Altered Book

Cloud formations as well as weather itself helped shape this altered book. Each cloud type was depicted and a slide capturing the essence of each cloud type is fastened to the page. When possible, the slides with white ink were kept outside during each type of weather allowing natural formation of slide composition.
