MADELEINE'S PASTE PAPERS
JULY 9 and 10th
$200 plus $40 Materials fee
Madeleine’s Paste Papers are a unique creation and a brilliant way to add a fresh and original look to your creative book art, collage, and calligraphy creations. In this one day workshop you will learn the brush technique that Madeleine has developed over the last many years. You will learn what kind of brush works best and how to hold it so that you create a variety of lines, shapes, and patterns. You will also learn tricks for blending colors. You will leave the class with a basic knowledge and ability to create straight lines, wavy lines, subtle blending techniques and geometric patterns. We will dive into painting with paste right away with simple lines and colors and quickly proceed to more complex patterns, colors and fun magical techniques. Madeleine’s paste paper technique is delightfully spontaneous. Come to class ready to have fun!
Materials fee $40 includes …
Please feel free to bring papers to experiment on. Pages from interesting old books are often wonderful to work on. Papers that will hold up to being dipped in water are best. You are also encouraged to bring some extra of your favorite acrylic colors. Golden works best as other can cause the paste to clump.
You will be provided with a paste recipe. A paste cooking demo can be given depending on the need and time.
