Curio Chronicles: A Bookbinding, Collage & Assemblage Workshop
Shake Rag Alley Center for the Arts
Madison, WI
June 5-8, 2025
Unlock the secrets of the Curio Chronicles, where each page, binding, and embellishment becomes part of an artful narrative. You’ll create a collection of hand-bound books, each capturing fragments of mystery, memory, and imagination. We’ll work through a combination of collage, bookbinding, and assemblage techniques to produce volumes that feel like artifacts discovered in a hidden library. Craft pages on a range of materials like wood, mica, fabric, and metal, weaving layers of texture and story. As we bind these pages, you’ll learn Mixed Coptic and Long Stitch techniques. To house these treasures, you’ll design a personalized display box—a cabinet of curiosities—an exquisite showcase. Curio Chronicles is a hands-on exploration of art and artifact, blending personal expression with timeless craftsmanship.
Mixed Media Collage:
Narrative of Virtue & Vice
Artists Studio Association
Lincoln City, Oregon
September 11-14, 2025
In this workshop, you'll discover how to bring your art to life through mixed media techniques—layering collage, paint, and texture to create rich, symbolic pieces. Inspired by the duality of human nature. We’ll explore virtues and vices, learning how to express these themes with modern materials while paying homage to classical artists like Paolo Veronese.
This hands-on class will guide you step-by-step as you build your own visual stories. From selecting and arranging imagery to layering meaning with every brushstroke, you'll develop both your technique and narrative style. By the end, you’ll have a stunning series of artworks that reflect your personal take on virtue and vice.
Join me for this creative journey and leave with frame-worthy art that speaks to timeless themes, blending the past with contemporary expression.
