In this two-day class, students learn the fundamentals of blind tooling and gold tooling on leather, focusing on straight lines and using shellac glaire to affix the gold. Line-work is one of the most important, fundamental, and versatile decorative techniques used on tooled bindings, and is used in both traditional and contemporary designs. Students also have time to explore the use of decorative tools within a limited scope. Each participant leaves with a final plaquette using the techniques covered.
*The amount you are paying today is HALF of the total workshop fee. This will be held as a non-refundable deposit and is required in order to secure registration. The remaining balance will be due the first day of the workshop. If you have any questions, please contact bookartsprogram@utah.edu
