| | Announcement!After MUCH encouragement-
I have decided to TAKE PER-ORDERS for Signed Copies of my BOOK!
Book Description
"Featuring techniques for assemblage and surface alterations never before
seen in a mixed-media art book (kit-bashing, wiring, egg-shell texture, casting
and more), Altered Curiosities offers a new twist on a hot topic.
A fresh variety of projects (such as hair barrettes, jewelry, a drawer pull
and a bird feeder) prove that artistic assemblage and collage styles can be
expressed beyond wall art.
Readers will learn a new storytelling approach to their mixed-media art. Altered
Curiosities goes beyond construction techniques to help readers discover how
to create a personal narrative with objects and visually tell a story, not just
infuse a piece with meaning or symbolism.
Two very important things make this book stand out from the crowd of other collage,
mixed-media and assemblage titles: the projects (full of oddities and the unexpected)
and the techniques--several of which have never been published before. A common
element of Jane Wynn's style is to find an object, break it and put it together
again (sometimes more than once), and she loves using anthropomorphic associations
to tell stories in her projects. Step by step, readers will learn her unique
method and her sought-after techniques. Along with surface alterations (faux-aging,
patinas and the use of unusual household products) Altered Curiosities teaches
metal etching with rubber stamps, simple wiring to create dramatic lighting,
instruction for altering simple toy figures (making two-headed animals, for
instance) and more."
