Join Paula Sheil, and Katelynn Castaneda on Sat., Jun 12, and Sun., Jun 13 from 10 am - 1 pm for a weekend of unique art and bookbinding!
On Saturday Paula will show participants how to create stunning image transfers from magazines, Gelli plates, and acrylic paint. Learn experimental techniques with this fun medium such as inking with masked objects and making ghost prints.
On Sunday Katelynn will show participants how to assemble their images into a beautiful drum leaf-bound book. A drum leaf book is an adhesive book structure made up of single folios attached back to back. Similar in make-up to a children’s “board book,” it utilizes minimal adhesive amounts, avoiding expansion and contraction issues. Only one side of each folio is visible in the finished book, making it an ideal structure to use when it’s only possible to print on one side of a sheet of paper. It’s perfect for printmakers and artists working with thick, stiff, or digitally optimized papers. Because there is no sewing in the gutter of the sections, it allows for seamless image crossover across the fold and it lays very flat. Requiring minimal equipment and tools, it’s quickly made and can vary greatly in its function and appearance depending on the paper, detailing, and covering material choices.
Participants will walk away with any images they made and a drum leaf book showing off some of the images! The cost of materials is included in the class price of $95.
Enrollment for the class will end 1 day before the class is scheduled to start. Must have a min of 4 participants or the class will be canceled. Max number of participants is 6.
Scholarships are available for Low-Income Participants. Please email us at [email protected] for more information!
