Fodder School 2 is a year-long online mixed media art course with a different artist teaching each month, which you can join anytime. For the first half of each month, you learn mixed media techniques to make different types of fodder, which you then use in the second half of the month to create an exciting project so by the end of the year, you have 12 beautiful projects and a huge toolkit of mixed media techniques! Follow along with me on my Fodder School Journey!

This month gave me lots of stencils inspiration and a wonderful way to create an easy but really beautiful handmade book. A perfect fusion of art and making!

The first half of the month focused on lots more ways to use stencils, which were really clever and very outside of the box but created amazing effects. We also learnt how to create confetti paper shown in the image below and it pushed me to think about using different type of paper, which has expanded my art comfort zone!

The second half of the month focused on creating our handmade book. I loved how the individual papers came together to create a really beautiful book full of interest. Using different types of paper really made the book come to life! This is definitely a quick and very effective book making technique that I can use again and again! I used my own range of stencils for the book – click here to view my stencil range.

I love Megan’s creative techniques, which really make you think differently about your tools and materials. I had so much fun creating this book and love the finished creation.
