Spontaneous deep down strokes make this class a path to creative genius. Many materials, tools and media will be explored-spontaneous combustion will occur. Catharsis by definition is a purification or purging of the emotions primarily through art. No calligraphy or lettering experience is required-you already have this mark making knowledge inside you. There is something so cleansing about intuitive movement, large scribbling and making art. You will use your creations to create a unique book using a piano hinge non adhesive binding that is truly easy-no sewing!
