Let's Tell Our Tales! - Personal Storybooks Class at Studio PAUSE

$75.00

Created to celebrate the exhibit “Making My Voice Visible: The Early Years of Handmade Storybooks by artist Sushmita Mazumdar”, I created Let’s Tell Our Tales so participants can tell their stories as they fill three unique handmade books with original art and writing.
Each book, inspired by one of mine, presents an opportunity to work with different techniques and media, from paper-cutting and 3-D structures to color pencils on pastel paper; Chinese ink and brush; and collage. Weekly themes for book forms and writings include inspiring structures, single words that suggest a story, and creating a container for memories.

All levels of bookmaking, paper arts, and writing experience are welcome.

All materials provided.

I will be teaching a free workshop on Jan 24 at Cherrydale Library where the exhibit is. A reception will follow.
