The first Workshop is a bookmaking workshop I am running for the Papermakers of Victoria at Box Hill Community Arts Centre.
No Blank Pages – a bookmaking workshop with a focus on content
This workshop will focus on creating pages that inform or excite, by the addition of colour and interest to make your page richer. This will provide an inviting background for later themed text and images.
You will become braver at working on your pages, by adding decoration in the form of text, borders, windows and much more.
You can choose to carve a simple print block which can be used to embellish your book.
The pages you wish to include in your book, will then be bound into the fabric cover you make, to form a beautiful book.
You will learn how to make a fabric book cover, add content to your pages before you bind them, and carve a simple stamp.
