Bookmark


This fall in our Black 2 art class we had to design and create a bookmark for our altered books. Each design had to include: the velvet covered matt board, wire, and material. I choose to use my hands as my design. First I got a fellow teacher to help me photocopy my hands so that I could look at them and draw at the same time. I drew and colored in the design on the back side. And then used a sharpie to draw in the lines on the front side. I used copper wire for one of my rings and one of my daughters toe rings for the other. I used a piece of lace as the cuff on one hand and then added a macrame` bracelet I had made a couple of years ago on the other hand.
