Because this is simpler than trying to upload photos twice and/or coding all of them into this post: here, have a link to the facebook album of pictures I just put up of my Dhalgren book art. Still severely in progress--flipping through to find the things I've done already, there were plenty of blank pages. But I wanted to get some sort of a record up of what I've done so far.

Still mostly using the markers, though I've added bits of an old photo (the Archives got it and didn't want it, so I got to take it, but it was falling apart a bit already) and started cutting pieces out of some pages, coloring some of them, sticking them back in other places... it's fun to see how many different things I can do with my limited media, but it'd be awesome if I could get some paints/pastels/whatever, like I was saying before.

(And I think putting bits of the photo in might work better if I had glue, not just masking tape...)

It's sort of ridiculously fun, especially the cutting-bits-out. I think I will have to do this again, maybe with a shorter book so I can do more contained things--Dhalgren is a sprawling book art project as much as it's a sprawling novel, which is awesome in that I can experiment, but it's hard to have anything cohesive going on.
