Inside Mill Kat Healing Arts, 806 Governors Dr SW, Huntsville, AL, 35801

In this creative class, we’ll take a small bundle of books and transform their page edges into a continuous work of art.
Working
 with simple techniques and a gentle approach, you’ll learn how to paint
 across the edges of stacked books to create a cohesive design. You 
might choose a flowing pattern, delicate florals, subtle color blending,
 or a repeating motif—something that feels natural and unforced. 
Patterns work beautifully here, allowing each book to carry part of the 
design while still feeling complete on its own.
You’ll leave with a
 finished bundle that can sit on a shelf, tied with twine—a quiet piece 
of art that holds its story along the edges.
