Art journal making with Jenny Blake (coming in late 2025-ignore our website date – this is yet to be set)
Workshops
A One-day Bookbinding Workshop with Jenny Blake.
We will create your own personalised journal for mixed media. By using the open spine button-hole stitch the book will open flat enabling you to work in a wet and dry medium. The cover will include one of your prints and you may include some of your work throughout the pages. The size of the journal will be A5 portarit or A5 landscape.
ABOUT JENNY… I am a Zimbabwean and have lived in numerous places in the world. Therefore, my background is quite diverse. My art degree was in printmaking and pottery. However, I have dabbled in many disciplines. My love of textiles was brought about by learning to sew my own clothes, crocheting and embroidering with my grandmother and mother, home crafts, drawing and painting. My current work incorporates drawing, bookbinding, printmaking and mixed media. I enjoy pushing the boundaries of the media and hoping to create a unique artwork that will express the work in a different way. I aim to create work that is tactile, layered with patterns and always exploring colours.
We need a minimum of 3 people for this Workshop to go ahead, so please book early!! If our Workshop is full or past the closing date, please join the Cancellation List. Email Workshop Coordinator at hunterislandpress@gmail.com to register your interest.
