Altered Books - Petit Jardin











I forgot to photograph the cover and it strikes me atht one of my altered books walked this week out of the studio, never to be seen again I'm sure. It has a mousetrap in a niche accompanied by a fake mouse on a gold background with a few drops of crimson red ink to add drama. The book was called "The Trap" in which I spoofed various types of traps. This book was created from a golden book that I cut down to a diminutive size.
