Today I want to show you a book that makes me really happy. It was created by my friend Catherine Matthews-Scanlon who already wrote the amazing book Sewing on Paper. Her new book is “Art from the Heart”
Das Buch verspricht über 20 Anleitungen für Projekte wie Schmuck, Shadow Boxes, Leinwände, Ornamente und Uhren etc.
The book promises more than 20 projects inluding jewelry, shadow boxes, wall hangings, ornaments, clocks and more.
Als ich dann das Buch öffnete, blieb mir fast das Herz stehen…so baff war ich. Die dort dargestellten Projekte schreien den Titel einfach heraus – jedes der abgebildeten Projekte ist Kunst vom Herzen. Man spürt dies sofort.
As I oppened the book, my heart nearly skipped…I was so astonished. The printed projects are screaming the book title – all of those projects are art from the heart. You can feel this right away.
Cat benutzt eine Menge Vintage-Produkte und Flohmarkt-Trophäen aber was mich wirklich beeindruckt, wie modern alles dennoch aussieht. Jedes einzelne der Produkte hat ein zeitloses aber modernes (nö – für mich ist das kein Oxymoron) und gute Laune machendes Design. Genau deswegen habe ich mich sofort in dieses Buch verliebt!
Cat uses a lot of vintage products and finds for her projects but what amazes me is how modern all of them look like. Everything has a timeless, yet modern (yep for me that is not an oxymoron) and uplifting design and that just made me love this book right away!
Die Anleitungen sind leicht verständlich und sicherlich leicht nachvollziehbar. Wenn auch bei dem einen oder anderem Material Fragen auftauchen, bin ich sicher, dass diese aber die Umsetzung des Projektes nicht gefährden können.
The tutorials are easy to understand and look like they are doable. Maybe there might be some questions about some of the used materials -but I ‘m sure that those will not endanger the projects.
Für mich alle Daumen hoch für dieses Buch und ein Muss für alle, die Altered Projects sowieso lieben.
For me a thumbs up book and a must for anybody who loves Altered Art.

Nat, we all need days like that. I took a class from Donna Downey last week and learned alot, but mostly I just let loose and had fun playing with paint and having fun with friends. It’s like breathing fresh air.
