Create a mixed-media, watercolor sketchbook that explores color palettes and word play. Learn a Japanese stab-binding structure and basic color mixing.

Make Art with Me

I teach bookbinding, collage, printmaking, papermaking and zine workshops for adults and children, ages 7 and up. Ask me about workshop projects and rates.

During bookbinding workshops, participants will have fun and make unique handmade books and journals. Explore color, line, shape and story while learning bookbinding techniques. Click to learn about my mixed-media collage workshops.

Here are a few samples of books made by children during my bookbinding workshops.
