More Pastel Interpretations! Kay Brathol-Hostvet
Soft pastel is a very adaptable medium and is perfect for learning different painting techniques. You'll do three
different interpretations from the same photograph. What will Kay come up with this time? Each work in your series will be
quite unlike the others! You will be using different papers and styles of application, learning which styles and techniques
work best for you. This repeatable workshop is for beginner to advanced levels. All paper will be provided. Beginners to the
soft pastel medium should have reasonably good drawing skills. Sunday, April 19, 10-4 $160 Please note correction to program times. Cancelled

non adheasive meandering book |
Accordion Folds & Meandering Books (Using your Paste Papers and/or other decorative
papers) Jackie Hefty
One sheet of paper can become a book with the
correct folding, creasing and cutting. (Think paper dolls.) We will explore the possibilities of meandering books, accordion
books with folded paper covers and a pocket accordion. Bring some of your own decorative papers that you made in a previous
class or those commercially available. Versatile and adaptable, concertina or accordion style book structures lend
themselves to so much. We will 'play' with and investigate variations using these structures. Paper choices/options
will be provided upon registration. Previous bookmaking not required. No specialized tools required to continue your 'play'
at home. Sat. April 25, 1 - 4 p.m. $60/$5 materials Cancelled
