Beauty book

Decided to make an altered book along the theme of beauty.  Had no idea how difficult this subject would be for me.  The book I chose was printed in 1924, entitled The Road to Beauty.  Let me tell you, indeed it is a long hard road, my sides ached from all the laughing I did while reading it. 

In a chapter named "reducing the bust, the quest of the boyish form" I decided to tweak with roller derby, one of my favorite new themes.  Note the color photo of me and my daughter in derby gear, crouched down in aggressive stance (she's the skinny one).  It was fun posing for that out in the street in front of my house way back in January.
