Please read through the following information and you can arrange a papercutting art workshop at your place.
In this 4 hour workshop, you will create a unique style of papercutting, cutting layers of different papers to reveal designs. You do not have to have any artistic skills to do this workshop!! Although it would help if you have prior drawing skills.
I start with powerpoint presentation where I show a history of papercutting art. After this, I teach drawing techniques for paper cutting art and also concepts of positive and negative space. Then we work on papercutting different colours of paper. The last exercise will be joining of different colour papers together.
Come along and immerse yourself in this meditative, therapeutic art form and create your own artwork to take home.
As we will use sharp tools so I recommend participants above age 10 will be good for the paper cutting workshop.
I can deliver a maximum of two workshops in a day, for kids and for adults. A maximum manageable number of participants would be 15 to 20. Both workshops can be at one location or different locations.
Please send me email at contact@tusifahmad.com for my hourly charges and other details.
