A Bibliopole Bird

Posted on May 12, 2021 | 13 Comments

Today’s weird bird is collaged with old books.

So I thought a fitting title is a Bibliopole bird:

The dictionary definition for Bibliopole (bib-lee-uh-pohl) – a bookseller, especially a dealer in rare or used books.

I enjoy reading during summer…

Have you read any good books lately?

Happy Weird Bird Wednesday!

Cheers! 🙂

What a cool collage, Jill. You really got into those books to the point that you used what appears to be the textured material that was used to bind the books.

  Hi Mike!, Yes, I used every part of the book! I took a class one time that taught us how to do this. Happy Wednesday! 😃

You have really excelled yourself this time Jill 💗. Must admit after spending many years in the book industry I still cannot bring myself to pull a book apart.

I love those colors, and the textures too. I’ve barely been reading since the pandemic started. Hopefully that will change. (K)

  Hi Kerfe, I like the textures of old books… I haven’t done as much art since the pandemic started so I understand about reading. 😃

    My routine has fallen apart which is maybe a good thing. But I haven’t replaced it yet…
