What is a book.........

For me a book is an excuse to go into the mad world that is MY HEAD. As unlikely as it sounds, in judgement of my awful spelling and poor use of the English language, I do actually really enjoy ready, when I have time to get round to it. I feel the words on a page seem to tell a story that people can interpret how exactly they want.

For example.......... My favorate nursery rhyme was one I found written in a childrens book at a young age....... It was insy weensy spider. Last year in foundation I did a project that made me think about this poem alot, as it was based on fears and phobias. I searched the house and eventually found my old book to use as inspiration for my project as a lot of my arrasional fears of the animals, I felt had come from that book.



Incy Wincy spider climbing up the spout
Down came the rain and washed the spider out
Out came the sun and dried up all the rain
Now Incy Wincy spider went up the spout again!


Heres my images from last year:






Although Its not quite along the lines of spiders, Tim Burtons Vincent came to mind when I thought of things that scare me. I pretty much feel terrified whenever I see his work now. Any of it!!!!
