Meadowbrook School

A busy and fabulous week for me as I was honoured to share my love of altered books with a group of grade 5 to 8 students at Meadowbrook School.  What I love the most about sharing what I do is how people take the supplies and, as their creative juices begin to flow, create amazing works that are totally their own.  I think that's one of my favorite parts of working on altered books and using mixed media...the sky really is the limit.  Once you see a few samples and begin to sift through the materials available, there is no right or wrong, it's just trial and error.  And the errors often become beautiful things.  And I really love how kids make everything their own...no judgement.  I also like how this project just begins with me but moves on to become a longer project that grows and improves over time.  Another amazing group of kids!
