That Day at the Lake

"That Day at the Lake" is a recently-completed artist's book.  Background images were printed on tissue paper, and then spray mounted on pages made from remnants of an old player piano roll.  The player piano paper is interesting -- ivory colored and very transparent.  The Images are collaged from magazine scraps and inkjet pictures, the text is original.  Covers are ivory cloth-covered boards, with the cover image printed directly on the book cloth.  Size: 7.75"h x 6.0" w, 22 pgs.  Here are the beginning pages:

A Fresh Round of Tricollage

Three collage friends (me, Sabine Remy in Germany, and Josephine Wicherts in Holland) periodically complete a round of three-way collaborative collages, nicknamed "tricollages."  This time each of us created two similar collage starters and then circulated those to the other two for completion.  It has been fun to see the similarities and differences in each set.  Here are the results.

Sabine circulated two versions of a large, Dada map of Zurich:

 Die Grossen Drei (The Big Three)
started by Sabine, added to by Josephine, finished by Lynn

 Guide to a Better Dada Story
Started by Sabine, added to by Lynn, finished by Josephine

Josephine started two black and white "museum" scenes:

 They're Watching
started by Josephine, added by Sabine, finished by Lynn

When You Are Caught by Art
started by Josephine, added to by Lynn, finished by Sabine

I sent around two black and white fashion models with neutral backgrounds:

 A Contemporary Dress Inspired by Velasquez
started by Lynn, added to by Sabine, finished by Josephine

The Inside and the Outside
