About the Workshop:

Taught by artist and CBA Instructor Béatrice Coron, this fun virtual class for all experience levels explores unique methods of creating paper-cut designs that can be worn on the body.

Students will learn to design 3D compositions using paper-cutting techniques like pop-ups and paper-sculptures. The group will also discuss how designs can be adapted to materials such as glass or metal.
