Pear
acrylic, gouache, and Posca pen on recycled cardboard

I made an accordion book out of recycled cardboard. Why? Why not? I can’t credit the person I got the idea from. I think I saw it on Instagram. You can soak corrugated cardboard in hot water (tap water is fine), then peel apart the layers.

I’m a sucker for Kraft paper and have made several books out of paper grocery bags, so this looked fun. it was a little messy but not at all difficult. After the cardboard was delaminated, I laid it on the patio to dry, then tore it down, folded and taped the pieces into a long accordion, and glued on a set of recycled book covers.

I guess I’m using this book for pear doodles.
