Clarifying

The idea of an altered book is to use the structure of a written text to make a sort of scrap book, as artfully as possible.

Penmanship is to really work on my handwriting and even start refining my calligraphy a bit.

And Glamour bombing is doing something sneaky, artistic and unexpected to inspire the feeling that makes people believe in magic. But they are meant to be about the art and not the artist. They bring smile and warm feelings and touch on the kid in all of us that wants to clap when somebody asks you to clap if you believe in fairies. They are often times things of mystery or whimsey that without an artist atributed to the are taken as something other than the creation of a person.

It's sort of hard to explain but easy to recognise when you see it.

It comes from the idea that Glamour, as in magical influance is spread via something that explodes with magic and spreads it far and wide.

Thats for now, I'm tired and just need to tidy some things up before bed. I had a rough day.

Take care of yourselves,
Rovingjack
