Class Description:

Art-Junk Journal assemblage is a combination of collaging, sewing, art and creative writing.  We will begin with collection, assembling and discussing what to use in your creation.  Not to mention the fact that this project is great for the environment as you are repurposing, recycling and using up all those wonderful pieces of fabric, buttons, yarns, trims, paper, ephemera you have.  After you crate your piece of at book, you then use an art-junk journal as a diary, something to write poems that you either created or ones you found and add to your book.  You use it to jot down how grateful you are, for spiritual feelings and the list goes on.  In class we will be creating a single signature book (you can journal in later).

You will being with what can be used in the creation of your book.  We will begin with a master board.  Then  multiple techniques of ways to manipulate the fabric and paper to recreate new versions.

You will learn what the junk journal lingos are and how to incorporate them into your book.  You will also learn how to make hinges, signatures and multiple treasures to add to your book.
