All the work for my solo exhibition Tall Tales is ready for the hang on
Sunday. Finding myself with some unaccustomed, albeit brief, free time, I've decided to keep my creative hand in by making a small folded zine. It is called Card Sharps and will be launched on the opening night of the exhibition.
The methods and materials (ink and acrylic
on playing cards) are the same as those used for Poker Faces, the zine I made last December for Hand Held’s
Christmas show BAZE (Book Arts and Zine
Exhibition: see blog posts December 6, 7 and 8 December 2012). For more about the project, click HERE.
Pictured below is the zine in progress, laid out ready for
photocopying, cutting and folding. Click on images to enlarge:
