A little book for trees

I made this book by printing and stencilling colour and shapes, mainly circles and diamonds  with some freehand monoprinting, on to an A 1 sheet of paper, then tearing the sheet into pages which I then bound into the book.  Laura Kemshall did a video on this some weeks ago and it certainly gives an interesting canvas to work on.  I spent a while wondering how to take it further, then decided to explore the shape of trees and leaves.  I used collage, more printing, drawing, real leaves and also cut away some of the original shapes to reveal the underlying page. Here are a few of the pages.

Itis still a work in progress.
