Saturday, October 25th, 10am-3pm
In-person in Langley, WA
Bring a hard back book to alter, all other supplies provided- price includes supply fee - $85
Convert a book into a journal! I'll begin by sharing what I look for when I choose a book to make into an art journal and will have my altered books available for you to look at. This is designed to be a really fun class where play and experiemtnation is encouraged. We'll begin by prepping the book and strengthening the pages. Next we'll use acrylic paint to decorate our covers and pages. We'll build rich layers by adding in different kinds of collage materials. I'll share my favorite technique for making image transfers. Discover how to add interest to your pages with cutting, folding, adding pages, windows, flaps and pockets. Go home inspired with fun techniques to continue your mixed media journey! Lunch will be 12-1, you are welcome to go out or bring your lunch and keep working during that time. Location address will be emailed upon registration. No experience needed!
 
Feedback from students:
 
"I can't tell you how much I enjoyed the class yesterday and how much I got out of it. I learned SO MUCH, and came home with my brain excited and full of ideas. It was truly a pleasure, from beginning (nervous sweaty first day of school palms and all) to the end, which came way too quickly. "

"I *soooooooo* enjoyed your class. It opened up a whole new world for me, and I'm so excited to learn more. You are a wonderful teacher, and I thoroughly enjoyed your class.  I honestly had no idea that watercolor could do the things that you taught us. Thanks again for everything."

"Thank you so much for a fun class and for opening the door to easing up inside around the process of creating art. My favorite thing was being given permission to be open to exploration without judgment or restraint. It helped me to relax around it and not feel like I have to love or show every piece; it helped me make more peace with process."
