Description:
Idyllwild Arts 951-659-2171, ext. 2365 This class will investigate the three aspects of a book: structure, image and text. Students will learn several Eastern and Western book structures, using adhesive and non-adhesive bindings including stab binding, one-page signature "painted books," accordion folds with covers and a simple flexagon structure, among others. Transfer techniques for creating images from photos or text and paste paper and tabletop silk-screening techniques will be taught. We will explore text using writing exercises inspired by Natalie Goldberg and Anne Lamott, two extraordinary writing teachers. You will learn the fundamentals of making a book and how to incorporate your own forms of expression into a variety of book formats.
