Let That Shift Glow!

Tear paper, layer color, and turn a glass votive into a glowing watercolor-style keepsake. Japanese chigiri-e for beginners.

A SHIFT HAPPENS Workshop hosted by The Restoration Refugee

Some days call for a softer kind of light. This is an invitation to slow down, rip that SHIFT up, and let it all GLOW.

Chigiri-e is the Japanese art of torn-paper pictures. The feathered edges blend like watercolor, so there's nothing to get wrong. We'll learn this thousand-year-old art and create a glowing piece to take home. Watch your colors glow.

What we'll do

• Learn about the materials and the process of chigiri-e
• Mindfully paint with paper to create a custom, handmade creation
• Enjoy letting that SHIFT glow

You'll leave with

• Your glowing chigiri-e votive

No art experience needed. Imperfection encouraged.
