Honolulu Altered Books Group March 2014

Aloha,

 

 

  March turned out to be quite a rambunctious meeting at Nico's Restaurant for our altered books group. We had the pleasure of finally getting to meet Marcy Grudzien who was visiting with her husband Stuart from Michigan. Marcy has been a member of our group since 2012.

We only have two more rounds left in this round robin, so let's be sure to let that creativity flow.

Please enjoy this months art work.

 

 

 

Do what you can, where you are, with what you've got. Break the rules, be different, be dynamic, but above all, be yourself! And have fun doing it!      (Paul Dixon)
