Sunday, April 13, 1:30pm-3:30pm

Let go of control and let the mark-making tool add interesting lines and texture! We’ll make our own mark-making tools from goodies found in nature and around the house, then make a concertina (accordion) book to chronicle the marks each one makes on a watercolor surface.

1. Identify items that might make interesting marks on watercolor.

2. Attach items, such as sticks, feathers, weeds and seed pods to a handle to facilitate easy handling.                                                                                                                                    

3. Use the tools to make prints or act like paintbrushes to make marks on watercolor paper.

4. Assemble marks into a concertina book to commemorate your experience.
