CLASS DESCRIPTION:
Create your own mini (2.5x3) and standard (5x7) notebooks with unique abstract painted covers in this fun DIY workshop. Kristin of D. Prince Designs will demonstrate several techniques for painting abstract covers and assembling each notebook. First, participants will select a color palette, inspired by a favorite photo or nostalgia! Then, we'll assemble and bind each notebook with your choice of spiral binding, and finish each notebook with a beautiful ribbon bookmark. Take your notebooks home to use and enjoy! (This class is also great for kids 10+ accompanied by an adult).
About the Instructor:
Kristin Taddei of D. Prince Designs is a Capitol Hill, DC- based artist and maker. She offers delightful, bright, and colorful hand-illustrated pen-and-ink prints and decor, inspired by nature and the uniqueness of places. In addition to recycled paper prints, D. Prince Designs sells stickers, bookmarks, notebooks, garland, ornaments, tote bags, and canvas pouches featuring these illustrations. Kristin also makes upcycled plastic earrings, a variety of suncatchers and hand-painted wrapping paper, and loves to work with clients to create commissioned artwork, including pet portraits, house portraits, bouquet portraits, and paper goods for events. Kristin is also an arborist, and when she's not creating, teaching workshops, or selling her products at Eastern Market, she can be found on daily "tree walks," going to concerts, and visiting new places with her husband.
