It's Jack's turn now. I found she had the perfect look of a "bluestocking", I don't know if this word is still in use. In Germany it's just the same "Blaustrumpf", an educated woman, a woman who puts learning and knowlegde first.
Based on vintage school books (always a good grounding) the book develops itself. The title came very immediately, when I looked at Jack's picture for a while.
So I was working my way up. No real intentions, only going with the flow.
The sepia ink is such a nice thing to work with.
It's a rainy day and it's nice to stay inside, listen to good music and just puzzle around with the scraps and cuttings.
The first two (double)pages are nearly done.
I love the use of text in these collages. Enjoy your rainy day.
