On this one-day workshop, you will be introduced to some techniques of creating one-of-a-kind books. You will make a unique multi-section binding. This idiosyncratic book can contain different paper: plain, lined, gridded, and pockets and envelopes for inclusions. Other pages can include simple pop-ups, fold-outs, varying page sizes and tipped in additional recycled paper.
The resulting book that you will take home is a resonant starting point for your own visual journal.
The course fee includes the cost of materials for your journal (excluding decorative papers which may be purchased individually).
Available from shop: A wide range of decorative, textured and plain papers Other art supplies, if required
Please wear appropriate clothing/aprons for the workshop or studio, this includes stout covered footwear (no open toes or sandals).
