New online class launch
Celestial Relics:
Angel books and beyond
Welcome to Celestial Relics: Angel Books and Beyond, a gentle, imaginative journey into the art of transforming the everyday into the extraordinary.
In this class, you’ll learn to transform simple materials into beautiful, aged-style art books.
I’ll guide you through each stage, sharing techniques that you can adapt to any theme or imagery that inspires you.
The class offers three options;
Foundation: learn to create beautiful angel books
Enriched: learn to make angel books plus additional techniques for using any choice of theme or images
Creative Companion: all the lessons plus a one-to-one mentoring session with me.
Something to suit all needs!

Testimonials from previous classes
"I absolutely love your class "Enfolded Memories" and re-watch bits and pieces of it often. So, I'm sure I will love this new class equally well. You are not only a great teacher technically and put so much into your class development, but a soothing voice in chaotic and trying times for so many."
Heidi

From old board book to unique treasure
We’ll begin with a simple children’s board book and transform it into an aged, mixed-media art book.
Through layering papers, paints, and textures, you’ll create a piece that looks beautifully timeworn and full of character.
The result will be a unique book that feels as though it has its own story to tell, entirely crafted by you.


Techniques you'll learn
-
Preparing the base – how to prepare the book’s pages and cover, collaging papers to create an interesting foundation
-
Working with tissue – techniques for printing and layering with tissue to build depth and subtle texture.
-
Blending and enhancing – how to use paints, metallics, and texture pastes to blend images and add aged effects.
-
Finishing touches – adding sketches, creating a fabric spine and details that give your book a finished, vintage look.

Going beyond angels
If you'd like to develop your skills a step further, I created bonus lessons showing additional techniques to create books with any images, in the Enriched Plan.
And if you'd love the opportunity to have a one-to-one mentoring session with me, as well as all the lessons, opt for the Creative Companion. The Creative Companion option gives you the opportunity to explore mixed media ideas, ask me questions about Celestial Relics or other projects, and get guidance on your own artistic practice.

"There is so much in this course. Every module is full of inspiration and beautiful creations. The videos and explanations are very clear, the materials required are easily obtainable and the techniques are not complicated. The end results, however, are absolutely enchanting and the opportunities to apply the concepts to your own projects are endless. Thank you Jane!" Adrienne
