workshop! Using a gelli plate, we’ll explore the endless possibilities of layering color, pattern,

• Techniques for adding textures, stencils, and mark-making
• Tips for building a personal collection of collage papers that reflect your own style

of discovery. Come ready to play, experiment, and leave with papers as unique as you are!
