Tokens of Affection: A Retrospective of Valentines by Corinna Cotsen
January 27-February 17, 2018

Opening: Saturday January 27, 2018, 4-6pm

Corinna Cotsen started handmaking and printing a small batch of Valentines about 17 years ago for family and friends. Ever since, it has become a tradition for her to design and craft a select number of cards each year in a related design scheme. Her personal valentines include a variety of processes and materials, from stenciling to printmaking and ribbons to Japanese fine papers. Her thoughtful palette and graphic approach breathe fresh air into a long-standing, sentimental tradition.

Join Cotsen for an opening reception on Saturday January 27th from 4-6pm and view a sample of some of her favorite creations from over the years.

Cotsen will facilitate a specialized card making workshop based on collage for a small group on Sunday, February 4th from 11am to 1pm, just in time for the big day. Materials will be provided.
