"A grownup is a child with layers on”


I have used my manipulated book pages to create layered work, in a similar way to the pieces I produced for my assessment in January (See related post here). Just like that work, these layered pieces are talking about children looking out through a cross over of the childhood and adult worlds.


The book pages used are from many old children's books, including classics such as A. A. Milne's Winnie-the-Pooh collections and Kenneth Grahamme's The Wind in the Willows.


The pages have been treated with different mediums such as varnish, shoe polish, gesso, watercolour, and marbling inks.
