Mixed Media Art Questions

Hello Milliande! First, I would like to say that I love your network, and your art journal pages are fabulous!

This probably isn't the best place to post this, so I apologize if that's the case.

I was wondering if you could please take a look at my blog - today's post - I have acquired some old books, one of which is a 1974 Atlas of the U.K. I am a new collector of ephemera, so I have no clue if this book may be valuable. My original intention was to use it as collage ephemera, but I wonder if I would do that...?

I am glad you are enjoying our art community and I am still immersed in Art Journal January ..it has been a busy month ..

From what I can tell it is a pretty standard uk atlas , these are quite freely available over here in thrift stores etc as they are made by the thousands anually ... so I would guess unless it is some sort of limited edition .. you should be pretty save using the book as collage pages

~ You could always photograph or scan the images and then print them out .. but I personally would just go ahead and collage my heart out :-)
