Not your Reader's Digest Christmas Tree

I remember when people used to make tabletop Christmas trees out of folded Reader's Digest magazines.  If you are feeling nostalgic, you can find the directions here.  Now artists are not only creating books as art, but using books as art.  Section 8A was able to take a break from their ATCs and look at the work of Australian artist Nicholas Jones.  Visit his website.

Susan Jensen is another book sculptor, as is Zito Bedat.
