Fiber Digital Journals 101


My upcoming internet workshop

Fiber Digital Journals 101:
Using digital media to create engaging mixed media journals

will start on April 7th and run for 3 weeks.

Class Description
Focusing on digital media we will learn techniques to create mixed media art journals. In this workshop we will design and construct our own original art journal from cover to cover. Exploring numerable possibilities for using digital prints, patterns and textures in journals, participants will experiment with their images to create surfaces that can be printed on ink jet printers.

At the conclusion of this workshop you will have your own signature journal developed from the multitude of innovative ideas demonstrated.

Week one:

Dye or paint the base pages
Work with digital grounds to coat surfaces for printing
Create transparent and/or textural skins

Week two:
Learn the process of digital printing on fabric
Manipulate images for printing

Week three:
Design the pages in the journal
Create your cover
Put it all together
