Isobelle Ouzman
Altered Book Artist. UK native based in Slovakia.
I like books, the moon, poetry, music, birds, dark chocolate, and kind people. :)
I've been creating Altered Books since 2012, full-time since 2020. I'm on YouTube to share thoughts, my process, and finished pieces. Portfolio, CV, and contact information are on my website.
