2014 Alphabet book project

12/28/2013

 
I've decided to embark on a new project for the 1st quarter of 2014 - and that is to create a book of the letters of the alphabet, each letter created using a different art technique or medium. This book will then be displayed April 4-5, 2014, at a show being held by the Out-of-the-Box Fibre Artists.

To have this done in time, I will need to complete an average of two letters per week plus time to put it all together and make a cover. One of my objectives is to create most of the letters using  techniques and materials that I am not very familiar with, so some practice may be required. My plan is to post pictures of at least two completed letters by each Sunday evening between now and mid-March, and in order. The first 3 are shown below.

My criteria:
- Each letter must be completed using a different technique or material (when it becomes necessary to also incorporate a previously used technique, the main focus must be on the technique or material assigned to the letter)
- The technique or material used must start with the same letter as the letter of the alphabet
- Each letter must be somewhat flat since they will become part of a book
- Each letter must fit on a 6x6 paper - this is the size of book that I am making

My list is below. It is subject to change - if a material cannot be located or if I come up with a better suited idea for the letter that I had not thought of up to this point.
A - acrylic paint
B - beading
C - couching
D - distressed materials
E - embossing
F - foiled
G - graphite
H - herringbone stitch
I - illuminated style
J - junk
K - kirigami
L - layering
M - momigami
N - needleweaving
O - oil stix
P - paste paper
Q - quilting
R - ribbon
S - stamped fabric
T - tissue paper
U - upcycled materials
V - velvet embossing
W - watercolour on fabric
X - texture (so far I have not found an item that begins with X, so at least this word has an X in it)
Y - yupo paper
Z - zentagles

    About Me

    It's taken years to discover the medium I enjoy the most. And how what I have learned before somehow fits into what I am doing now. Even when I travel my needles and threads are with me so I can continue to create while away.

    It's been wonderful being able to share my work with others and to be a part of an artistic network that continues to grow and develop.

    If you have ideas you would like to suggest, please let me know. And check back regularly to my web site for updates.
