Decided to try something different with this book.
Hadn't painted in a long time and have had an idea for a sardine tin book rolling around in my head for a while now.
I had been going to cut out a hole in the book and then make sardines with silver leaf to go in the book, however, I decided to spend my afternoon painting the cover with oils instead.
I did use silver leaf for the base of the sardines, so not totally off the original idea.
I'm so glad you're painting again, the cover is lovely and completely changes the perception of the book while not removing the original content. I love watching your ideas evolve!! x A
