How to Make an Altered Book Layout – Techniques With Gesso and Charcoal

Hello! Here is the latest layout in my latest altered book I am showing page by page. Today I use an old engraving of a cathedral and a vintage holy card for a whimsical, dramatic scene, adding watersoluble graphite, gesso, and charcoal for a variety of mark making and interest.

To find free, high-res scans of this and other 19th century, French holy cards go to my website:
