FAIRYTALE ALTERED BOOK CLASS SAMPLE!
Better Late Than Never! Here is my Sample book for Tomorrows 'Fairytale Altered Book' Class at the CASTLE! I wanted this book to be child friendly, and also appeal to the child in all of us. Little children (tied on with silk ribbons) fly with birds, picnic with pink dragons, play 'dress-up', ride bell-peppers and bathe with ducks! We begin their story peeking out of a tea-cup and end with them all tucked in bed!!! The dog on the back cover has mirrors for eyes, since we all know we like looking at ourselves best! What better way to welcome childhood into our lives again?!!
Oh my Ulla! How fabulous indeed! Wonderful and inspiring! I love it! Carol xox

I am with Erla one day I would like to take a class at the Castle.
I wish there were a place like the Castle in my area...Do you know of any place like that close to NYC preferably in Southern NJ?

Dear Ulla,
You are amazing. You are so talented. It just flows out of you in so many ways. Do you ever sleep, do you work fast? I love the altered fairy book.
The end page made me smile.
Thanks for your bday wishes!
Have fun at your class with the Queen of Crowns!

I just don't know how you do it Ulla.
It is completely wonderful.
Such powerful images presented in this innocent and fun way.
The chice of colors makes my little artistic heart sing !!!
Nice job !
Much love to you, one of these days I will come to the Castle and have fun creating some nice things too.
Just wondering how would be the best way to proceed. For the time being it must be in a day-dream state. But dreams can come true !
Have a great weekend.
