I made this piece with a book text page that I used for the "found poetry style statement." My inspiration piece was the "Altered Book Art Project" found on this "old book art examples" webpage.

All of the "found poetry style" lines are:

"She knew the mountain rains, like a flash and an instinctive unbidden gaze."
"His figure looming, wavering, from the shaking lantern."
"She noticed his dinner jacket."
"Instinctively doubting."
"I'm so sorry."

I created this using GIMP 2.10.24.

The vintage images are from an Internet search. (See the side of my blog for links.)

This week's Sunday Postcard Art challenge theme was "Old Book Pages."

I'm only entering this one, but I made two pieces with the only difference being the book text page that I used for the "found poetry style statement." My inspiration piece was the "Altered Book Art Project" found on this "old book art examples" webpage.

I especially liked this line on my piece: "The storm lay there gasping for breath on the shadowy moon."

All of the "found poetry style" lines are:

"Black abysses beyond its edges."
"Broad steps sank into the wall."
"The storm lay there gasping for breath on the shadowy moon."
"Men raced, bent on finding who had fled."
"The duke supplied time."
"The rest recovered from the mad race."

I created this using GIMP 2.10.24.

All of the "found poetry style" lines are:

"The glow from her lantern enveloped her."
"Spattering raindrops whizzed in the inky sky."
"The tree-tops tried to flee the arduous journey."
"The essence of slowness assailed her with terrors."
"Ghosts, witches, hobgoblins, cheered on by the shrieking wind, carried her higher up the mountain."
