Specialty Technique Workshops held on specified dates.
Workshops are available for those who wish to expand their knowledge and understanding of paper tole.
These not only increase your confidence but take your work to a higher level.
The focus is on learning specific techniques. To achieve this you may work on several different images, not just one image as you would when creating a regular paper tole project.
