Students will start this class by learning 2 traditional Japanese book forms – orihon – a traditional accordion book, and Yotsume Toji, or 4-hole binding, commonly known as the stab binding. With a book form in hand, students will prepare paper for a book of their own, designing the pages to fit the eventual book. Students will use linoleum relief printing, drawing, and watercolor techniques to fill the pages with images in advance of the final assemblage.
