This Bundle contains four classes, starting you out with the basic of the elements and principles of design. The next class is learning to use a viewfinder to find a composition then work that composition into new compositions by changing small elements to have the largest impact. The three class takes you into the different composition, with the continued use of a viewfinder. Horizontal, vertical to radial and cruciform plus all the others in between. And last class in this bundle will move you though small exercise right into a larger format with the use of the tack iron all by using Magazine as your collage paper source.


Hi, I’m Laura Lein-Svencner

I grew up in Downers Grove close to her grandfather’s farm, which was the last operating farm in Downers Grove, now resides in Darien, Illinois. Married with four grown children and a home full of loving creatures.


Although I've studied drawing, printmaking, sculpture, book arts and the art of hand papermaking. It is the love of paper and design that calls my attention. I am another generation in the chain of “Creative Makers,” working with their hands. 


I am grateful for the good medicine offered by walks in the woods, and daily walks with my Bloodhound/Lab-Gracie. The joy of wandering with my husband in interesting old towns or National Parks to the connection with the earth in my own little plot of land.

As I look back, I see that I've always been a very spiritual person and more so as I get older. I love hanging out with my women folk over a good drumming circle or a book club. And family is the heart and soul of our home.
