Focus + Flow | Restorative Art with Karen Olson
Washi Arts has a good range of papers well suited to the techniques that Karen Olson teaches in the Take Two Arts “focus + flow” course. A selection of these papers has been tested by Karen and I’ve put them together in a kit. I also stock some of the tools and supplies that Karen recommends for the course. Scroll down to learn more.
