WORKSHOP

An accordion book

on tracing paper

 

 

Have you always wanted to create your own artist's book?

In this author's video course, using the example of creating an accordion book, we will experiment with the form, improvise with the plot and learn how to tell a story with the help of an image. So, we will find a topic for narration and set the rhythm in the composition for book. We will create two accordion books, where we will apply two methods of shaping in the drawing.  We will experiment with different colour options and work on the composition, visualizing it with the help of images. We will find the right rhythm and balance, taking into account the accordion book format, to make it attractive and dynamic.

And everything ,

you learn, you can apply 

 

 

to your project!

What is this course?

You will create  2 illustrated accordion books.

Who is this course for?

This course is for all people who want to learn other ways of storytelling and experimenting.
