Explore Mark Making and Book Arts in this two-day class. From the process of making our own brushes using collected items from nature and other found objects and then using them to put mark to paper in free form expression. We will experiment with marks you can make from your brushes on various paper. Day one is all about exploration.
Day 2 is about structure and the art of the book. Using our papers from the prior day, we will learn three different adhesive-based book structures using the similar technique of Drumming.
