Re: What's the Weirdest Object You've Ever Altered?

Wow, copper cat! Now that's a surprising and unique object to alter - it must have taken him hours to inlay abalone shells, I would think. Can you post an image of it? A fun book to get the creative juices flowing is Altered Art by Terry Taylor. It's packed full of gorgeous images, helpful tips...

Re: What's the Weirdest Object You've Ever Altered?

I havn't altered any unique objects (yet) myself, but my hubby did a wonderful piece for me. He has a passion for shooting, and a couple of years ago altered a long gun in a very beautiful way - changed it to something very feminine.

I would be thrilled if both of you were inspired to make some altered art! I'd think I'd died and gone to heaven if I happened upon an instrument like the trumpet you found, Bill.

Hi Zura, White Oleander is one of my favorite movies and I absolutely love the suitcases. Thanks for reminding me. Hey Bill, I love your altered man post. I think I'll do one for each of my failed relationships as a healing technique. Thanks for the idea. I'm going to have a whole army of men...

Re: What's the Weirdest Object You've Ever Altered?

I have altered two birdhouses. One wooden, the other metal bars. I have altered a denim jacket, several altered books, Ooooh- and my kitchen garbage can! It had sentimental value, but looked horrible, now it looks as special as it really is to me. I have also altered several mirrors, including one old...

Re: What's the Weirdest Object You've Ever Altered?

What a fun thread! I have really only altered a book and it is not finished yet. I started it about four years ago and really just need to sit down and finish! I am just beginning to be more engaged in making art and I think altering is going to be something I'm really going to enjoy! Oh ya, I've...
