If you're looking for a creative paper-based activity in Perth, you've come to the right place. In this workshop, you will learn this ancient Japanese art and create beautiful pieces to take home with you.
Alleviate any worries you may have as a beginner – this class is welcoming to all skill levels. You'll be guided through the process step-by-step, making it easy and enjoyable for you to learn.
During the class, you'll be working with various types of thin paper. Here's what to expect:
  • You will fold and colour thin papers to create shapes for colouring.
  • Learn how to fold a concertina and make shapes which unfold.
  • Watch as your creations evolve into beautiful patterns as you add colour and then open them out.
As you immerse yourself in this hands-on activity, you may feel a sense of relaxation and joy as your creativity flows. It is also truly unpredictable. The experience of creating something with your own hands can be truly rewarding.
By the end of the workshop, you will have crafted your own unique pages that can be used as pictures, wrapping, or in collage. The possibilities are endless, and you'll walk away with your personalized creations that showcase your newfound skills.

I am an architect and I learned Calligraphy in school. Becoming a member of the WA Calligraphers' Guild revived this skill and I extended my interest in lettering into cutout forms and folded card structures. I have contributed several articles to the American magazine Bound & Lettered and have learned from visiting Calligraphers from the US and UK. My works have been sold at the Between the Sheets book exhibition which takes place every two years and is at the TAFE gallery in Perth again this August.
