Description
It's 3D so kind of hard for me to take a photo of.I made this as an apology gift for someone. I had to think about what I did with every fold I made, so you can't say I haven't thought about what I've done. I hope they like it.
The book I used was The Fifth Elephant by Terry Pratchet.
I have more bookart coming up have a look in my gallery for more
Edit: I got the idea from Isaac Salazar - type his name into Google Images. A-M-A-Z-I-N-G
Here's the refolded version: [link]

I can't believe that no cutting was involved

Just cuts along the pages on the sides so I can fold them in. But I didn't cut any words or sections out. So if I want to, I can unfold and read the book again

So...What happens with the book after you unfold it from whatever design you did?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I don't unfold it. That's the problem with book art - you can't read the book again. Unless you unfold it.
If I were to unfold it, the pages would just be very worn out. There may be some cuts or tears, but it's still readable.

I try and find someplace to store them. Namely, my friend's locker

And everyone goes "Why did you do that to the book? "

And add " Why so mad about it?"

I hope the book was terrible. Would be a sin to deface a good book.

Thanks
It was the last part that was hard to do. This kind of stuff gets easier after a while (thankfully). One of my previous ones, "Lily" was a lot harder.

What was the last part exactly? I gandered at your piece "Lily" it is damn impressive, seriously, really inspiring work you're doing here
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Folding the last 100 or so pages. The book begins to bend because it's basically twice as thick as it originally was. Not to mention that the last letter was "y" and in both cases, I had trouble with them.
You should try it
