Monkeys Fist 38612 Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 This is my brother's hobby/sideline. He takes old pages from paperbacks, and adds artwork over the top , picking out text to form a statement/sentence/ mysterious arty bollix. He gave me one at Christmas, and its really rather good. (I'll post a pic of it later.) You can get them here http://www.etsy.com/shop/TheBiscuitBarrel (There are only two examples on there, he has more) Get them before he wins the Turner Prize ( £39.99 incl frame and post ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
