LLART 156 - Book Art for Everyone

Explore the art of expression through book making as we create and bind imaginative books perfect for your writing and/or illustrations, portfolio, vacation memories, anniversary presents, bridesmaid's gifts, or birthday photos. In the first class session, we will practice with a variety of designs for book interiors that you can fill and embellish at home. The second session will focus on creating covers for your book and exploring binding options. In the third session, we will create pop-up masterpieces that you can use in future books or greeting cards. You will leave this class with a finished, one-of-a-kind book of your treasured memories! For inspiration, we will also have the opportunity to view Robert Sabuda's book and paper exhibit at the UMFA. Sabuda, an award-winning paper engineer, is known for his creative book and pop-up art.
