As with all our classes, no previous experience is necessary to create these beautiful papers.

All classes meet at MomiLani Paper Arts. 11- 3. $75/class with $10 materials fee.

We serve a vegetarian light lunch for your convenience and pleasure. Hope to see you in February!

Monotypes (instructor: Adrienne Momi)
A monotype is a one time image made with simple printmaking techniques. Monotypes can be marvelous pieces of art and can be created without a great deal of printmaking skill. These little “jewels” often exhibit a spontaneity not obtained in any other medium—and making them can be lots of fun regardless of your skill level.

Book Arts (instructor: Adrienne Momi)
Let your imagination go wild making handmade paper and making hand decorated papers. And then, learn a variety of simple bookbinding techniques using that paper. A perfect beginning for that journal you always wanted to keep or the memory book of photos from a special occasion. . .or just to have beautiful paper and books in your life.

Soul Painting (instructor: Adrienne Momi)
Our dreams and imaginations are often filled with images that appear from the deep subconscious. If we can “let our imaginations go” and open the doors to Psyche, we can paint those images and learn important things about ourselves, things that can help us to live more consciously. Please bring a willing heart and soul to class.

January 24, February 28, March 28
Collage Techniques (instructor: Roberta Lee Woods)
Learn to explore the wonderful world of collage. We will create our own
altered papers and incorporate them with foriegn texts, stamps, and exotic papers.
Paper transfers and other techniques will also be demonstrated.

Grand Opening, Grand Success!
