Friends of Calligraphy's Summer Workshop this year was with
Susan Longerot. What a fabulous time we all had learning surface design
techniques, books, containers and lettering. Here are some photos from
the workshop.
 |
| Each of us received a unique surface designed folder, made by Susan, with all instruction sheets. Our first prize of the first day. Each day, twice a day, someone could win something from her box of small surprises too. I was lucky to be the first winner! |
 |
| Turkish book box opened with signatures, I decided not to add the decorated surface to the outside box corners. |
Top of the twist box or Turkish book box closed with finished surface design using masking and watercolors with highlights of copper gel pen.
 |
| With other Turkish book boxes..so many different looks and colors. |
 |
| The finished bronze rod hinged book with bead embellishments. The papers from our day with the bleach, coloring, doodling and lettering. |
 |
| Opened pages, each made from our section of our bleached papers.... |
 |
| small accordian book with sample swatches from our projects... |
 |
| Case made with one of Susan's decorated sheets to house our sampler accordian book. |
 |
| The five exposed bindings. |
 |
| Slip cover made to hold the five exposed binding books decorated with our watercolor technique and Susan's paper chips. |
 |
| The five exposed binding stitches and embellished with our own watercolor surfaces and lots of small chips from Susan's paper chips and beads. |
