One of my favorite forms of art is what is called Altered Art. Taking everyday items and changing them, using them to create something else. I found this book and it is a fascinating look at artists who use all manner of media to tell stories and create the most fascinating art. I am so intrigued by all the ideas and even though I do this already, saving little bits and pieces of things in the hope that I can repurpose them later, it has me looking at things even more and thinking "What story can I tell with this?" or "What can I put together to illustrate this feeling, emotion or situation I may be struggling with?". I'm really excited to start exploring more of this and seeing what I can come up with. Who knows...maybe you'll see some of it in future 365 pictures.
