Love This! Art Made of Old Book Pages

"Old books carry a history, not only the story written on the pages. Dog-ears, stains, a dedication on the flyleaf, a doodle in the margin..."
-Cecilia Levy

Today's artist, Cecilia Levy, creates all of her work out of old book pages and glue--nothing else! Her work is beautiful in a very subtle, very unexpected way, and of course I'm drawn to it because of my complete love of books, paper, and all things unique + different ;) 

Some of my favorites are below:

Calming and serene, isn't it? 

You can view more of Levy's fantastic "Paper Art" on her website. 

Namaste!

La la love this! Have you seen this craft book by Lisa Occhipinti: The Repurposed Library: 33 Crafts That Give Old Books New Life. Amazing stuff than even the budding artist could create. I hate to part with a book of any kind.

I'm one of your juicy blogging classmates - and I just have to say I love your blog...and the art you've shared in this post is especially near and dear. I love to play with paper...making my own journals, artist books & fun cards. And I love books, too. Cecilia's art is very creative & interesting!

It is great to connect with you!
