After making a couple of zines recently that involved experiments with paper strip weaving, I just completed this one. It has the weaving over the entire substrate (black paper) followed by decorating it with conplementary-colored painted paper circles and glitter glue.
This was my first arty zine (without words) using the black paper as a substrate, and I love how the colors "pop" because of the contrast. It wouldn't look nearly as good on a white background.
That said, thumbing through the folded zine, the page spreads are pretty. But I actually prefer looking at the flat version because you can see the weave in full. Isn't it fun?
