I Was Hoping

This is one of those pieces that started without a plan. I just got a drill press and wanted to play. 

I drilled the hole and when I turned the book over and saw how the paper tore and burst from the hole, I went into automatic pilot and this happened.

All books in this series are first steeped in beeswax to permeate the layers and encapsulate in wax. I believe this helps in the preservation. This piece is free standing.
