Hi everyone - this is an exciting opportunity to work with a world class
bookmaker, Suzanne Moore, here on Vashon Island
Book Arts Basics and Beyond
Saturday, September 26 (9am to 5pm) and Sunday, September 27 (10am
to5pm)
Claudia Hollander - Lucas' studio on
Vashon Island, WA. (directions will be sent)
Cost is $135. This includes most materials. Fee is due at time of
registration, limited to 8 students, and two additional participants on
a waiting list.
Suzanne Moore will facilitate a two-day workshop on essential techniques
of book construction. In this "Bookie Boot Camp" we will discuss and
apply the principles of adhesive selection and use, paper cutting,
scoring, folding and laminating, covering boards with paper and cloth,
as well as hinging and tipping of pages.
These concepts and techniques will be applied in the creation of an
accordion book, a portfolio, and a multiple-folio book. The session is
packed with information and processes, and you will take away great
examples of structures you can alter and adapt to future work. It will
also serve you well as a foundation for future book-making. Material
costs are included in the class fee, and all materials will be pre-cut
for use in making the three structures.
Participants should have good hand skills, and a friendly attitude
toward cutting tools. No previous experience is necessary. All pre-cut
materials will be supplied to make the three structures.
Tools to bring:
small break-off knife
large triangle** (minimum of 8" on one side; metal if you have one, and
the larger the better)
straight-edge**
bone folder**
12 x 20" (approx) cutting mat** (mat board piece is fine)
**- marked tools are a bit of an investment, and Suzanne can bring some
tools for use to class. Contact Suzanne for tools at:
home/studio: 567-5480 or scarletandmaeve@xxxxxxxxx (feel free to
call/write with questions about the class)
Bring a lunch (we will take a 1/2 hour lunch break)
Only if you have them and are so inclined, feel free to bring:
decorative cover papers you might want to use/incorporate (flexible,
non-watercolor papers work best)
specific materials you might want to use and questions about their
appropriate use in a technique.
To register, please complete and return this form with your check
