"Not My Intentions" >>> Texture/Color Study Process

Yes, my plan was to make two accordion books.
No, I did not want to bind a book together using string.

The other day I went to the WASH building to work on texture stuff. I had made two accordion books in class on Tuesday, one out of bristol paper, and one out of drawing paper. The day I went up to work on stuff, I also made one out of brown paper. I made one out of brown paper because I realized the bristol paper was WAY to thick to be using for an accordion book. So I decided to cut up the bristol paper book and just use the paper as scraps for other projects. So I began cutting, and right when I got to the last page of the book, I realized I was cutting up my drawing paper accordion book!!!! :( :( :( I was so mad and frustrated by this point I did not even make a new accordion book. So I came to my second option of tying together the textures, which is actually turing out really cool looking. I'm kind of glad I made such a huge mistake!

So I began backing each of my textures (using the accordion book paper I cut up) lol and also putting grommets inside of the hole punches.

And then tied together each texture and cut off the extra string.

My book folded up while it was still in progress.

And I began making a cover for the book.
