A day spent at Little Bird Creations studio, the class was
Folded Foto Folio. The description for the day...
In this
workshop, you will learn a variety of techniques from the worlds of
mixed media, painting, book making, photography, and collage. We will
start with creating highly layered and textured backgrounds using
acrylics, gesso and paper. These in turn will become the pages of a
one-of-a-kind accordion book, to which you will add your own handmade
covers. Next comes your own photography, to be added as the focal image
of each page. And finally, you will create your own personal touches
throughout the book using your choice of collage and mixed media
materials. Everybody will have the opportunity to make several books and
in the end, you will leave with both a unique photo journal and a host
of techniques that you can apply over and over to any number of future
projects
