Concertina Sketchbook Workshop
$95 for 3 Hour duration, Saturday 16th August
Concertina sketchbooks are so fantastic to make so join me this August to make your own.
We will be making this from scratch and I will show the method of how to make the sketchbook and how to develop an idea as you move through the pages.
These sketchbooks are a fantastic way to remember a place you loved or look at a project you might want to develop painting ideas for. Perhaps you just don’t know where to start making use of those blank white pages of a book. So, we can prepare ahead before we venture off on sketching trips and holidays with a sketch book full of prompts and starting points.
Many materials are utilised for this, so feel free to include your own favourites. I will provide the sketchbook paper and a source of materials and tools to help you create your own book.
