A textile lover blogging about shibori, textiles, art, design and fashion. Based in Melbourne, Australia. Exploring the world to find inspiration. My other blogs: oohahhart.tumblr.com… and…oohahhdesign.tumblr.com…are where I primarily reblog art and design I find on tumblr, that doesn’t quite fit this blog. along with some original art and design I like by friends or sourced on the net. taniabishop.tumblr.com… is where I blog my original textile art, design and inspiration sources. It is in flux… evolving.Tumblr (3.0; @shiborilover)http://shiborilover.tumblr.com/<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/f815ab8c9a669a1340e7958f8331bbdb/tumblr_mn5i1keDxJ1rq73fko1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a href="http://katiebettyjonestextiles.tumblr.com/post/50988152823/delicious-colour-combos-now-to-make-them-in-to" class="tumblr_blog" target="_blank">katiebettyjonestextiles</a>:</p> <blockquote><p>Delicious colour combos.

techniques to create an entirely new version. He found his threepenny novel in a junkshop on Peckham Rye, South London. This was an 1892 Victorian obscurity titled <em>A Human Document</em> by W.H Mallock and he titled his altered book <em>A Humument</em>. </span></p> <p><span>The first version of all 367 treated pages was published in 1973 since when there have been four revised editions. <em>A Humument</em> is now one of the best known and loved of all 20th Century artist’s books and is regarded as a seminal classic of postmodern art.”</span></p> </blockquote> <p>There’s an iPad app for this.
