It's Sunday so it's time to share another book. I created this one, entitled "Flash, Flash, Tap, Tap" after a road trip in 2000. Three friends and I drove non-stop from Athens, Georgia to Livingston, Montana. It was an amazing experience which ended up changing my life forever. It turns out that I developed feelings for my future hubby during the trip. :) Anyways, this is a mixed media accordion book with watercolor, colored pencil and charcoal drawings. They overlay hand-written excerpts from my travel journal. I intentionally obscured the text because I didn't want the audience to see everything. As you will see in my other work, this is a common element. The cover is made from a map that we used along the way -- before google maps and GPS :)
