Ever wondered what becomes of a well-loved children’s book once its story has been told? In this joyful hands-on workshop, we’ll breathe new lie into sturdy-paged storybooks, transforming them into vibrant, personal art journals.
Join artist and instructor Leona as we paint, collage, and layer meaning onto each page. You’ll learn how to:
Prep board books for mixed media magic
Use gesso, watercolor, and collage to build dreamy backgrounds
Add poetic prompts, textures and nature inspired details
