"For Travel in the Lands Beyond: Homage to Norton Juster"

I made a travel journal based on the travels of Milo from The Phantom Tollbooth, my favorite book. Just to show how much work went into it I made a video as well. The picture you see above is the front cover. This book was made from found objects, collage, drawing, ink, watercolor, photographs, burnt paper, fabric, sewing etc. The picture below is of all the pages that went into the book.

The Castle in the Air

I learned how to make decals recently (basically just a way of printing images on to ceramic pieces). These are a few of the plates that were a result of my experimentation.

The most amazing creature to walk the earth....

"Tasmanian Wolf"

aka "Tasmanian Tiger"

"Thylacine"

The Tasmanian Wolf/Tiger/Thylacine was probably one of the most amazing creatures on the planet. It was a carnivorous  marsupial (from the kangaroo family). It walked on four legs bit had a pouch. It could also open its mouth at a 90 degree angle.

SADLY, due to over hunting the Tasmanian Tiger went extinct in 1936

This piece reflects the solitude that we all feel in our lives at one time or another. It is the act of being alone. We all feel as though we completely alone at one point or another. Sometimes that solitude can be good for your mental development.
