Altered Art Circus!
Techniques for Journals, Paper Dolls, Art Cards, and Assemblages

By
Lisa Kettell

Altered Art Circus! takes the reader on a magical journey into an artistic world where you can discover your creative muse, waiting to come out and play. It is, at heart, a technique book for altered artists, but the ideas are housed within a wonderful, spectacular fantasy land. Altered Art Circus! you the daydreamer, the explorer, the artist, to a place you have never been, where you can unleash your artistic dreams and explore hidden worlds through cutting-edge techniques, creative projects, and beautiful images.

Altered Art Circus! includes easy tutorials on basic digital altering effects for new and vintage images, step-by-step instruction for projects, a gallery of inspirational work from other artists, and clip art and images for you to use in your own projects. The book covers digital and paper alteration, creating from found and household objects (jars and boxes), features playful illustration, vintage imagery, and uses myriad other mixed-media materials, ranging from glitter and wire to crinoline and coloring agents.

Lisa Kettell is a mixed-media artist and writer with years of education and experience in altered art, graphic and print design, business, and marketing. She designs and publishes a successful art and fantasy zine called The Faerie Zine, which is dedicated to fairyology, the arts, creative inspiration, and travel.

One of the cutest elements to design with is the cupcake and combine that with a recycled jar you have in my ever so humble opinion a mixed -media project that you simply can't go wrong with.
