"In This House" showcases a collaborative art project that explores innovative altered art and collage techniques by top mixed-media artists. Using the theme of 'home', each artist designed five altered art rooms to complete an individual 'house' that closes like a book or can stand accordion style. Each house is a part of a larger whole; a neighbourhood of twelve unique and fascinating art-full houses, varying in execution, theme and style, yet united as part of the larger neighbourhood. Each house is a unique interpretation on the theme, reflecting the artist's style and incorporating the mixed media techniques for which each artist is most well known. The thirteen artists have created an inspiring collage technique workbook for readers. The back of the book includes a blank 'house' template and a clip-art gallery of home-themed imagery that readers can alter and use in their own collage work.
About the Author: Angela Cartwright's art and photography is exhibited and collected internationally. She has written numerous articles on altered art technique and she lives in California, USA. Sarah Fishburn is an internationally known collage artist, and she also teaches in Colorado, USA.
