Tamashi Bundles to Books!
Course Curriculum
Part 1: This is a replay of a zoom hangout session where we collect and organize our papers as we prep to create our intuitive bundles. I will teach you 4 collage prepping techniques that will help you to begin establishing the unifying voice & spirit of the papers you select. I will also cover layout and composition basics that create visually appealing and balanced works of art.
If you’ve been around me for even a little while you know, I’m a rule breaker! I like to do the unexpected and usually make artistic choices contrary to the established norm. However having a strong foundation in the basics will help you to “break the rules” with confidence and in doing so understanding why the choices you make, work!
Part 2 - The second session is a prerecorded video where we will take our intuitive Tamashī bundles and use them to construct a unique book structure never before explored in the Art Mythos Studio School!
This course will cover how to:
- Prep for intuitive collage
- Overcome decision making mental blocks
- Turn off your analytical/methodical left brain and rely on your intuitive/imaginative right brain.
- Utilize the basics of composition and layout
- Mass making for future projects Book construction
- Story telling through book arts
