Gel Prints to Letter Journal, with Michelle, is a hands on class where we will create delightful painted papers with monoprinting, then bind them into a 4″ x 8″ letter journal, ready to decorate and share with friends. The class is run at the light-filled Mixed Media Arts Studio, in Mt Waverley (see here for details) Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.
