Artists book fair ideas and development..
I need to think of what material I plan on making the face of the brooch out of. I want something easy enough for children to do, but with enough freedom for all other age groups to create something beautiful and as intricate as they like! My options so far are as follows;
Paper - easy to cut and shape but will easily get crushed and loose shape.
Card - still easy to cut and shape but again will...

Development..
So far I have been working on my designs on illustrator and making them come alive on the lazer cutter. However i’m putting that on hold while I focus on making my book for the Artists Book fair.
