Create a Shape Poem by combining words from a personal word list with a relating shape. Song lyrics are a great option besides your word list. The images can be formed by repeating and/or overlapping words; using pens, pencils, markers and printed letters. Consider emphasizing your distinctive handwriting. The process of creating a Shape Poem can be very cathartic; a lot like journaling! Small journals are included (or bring your own). You will walk away with a finished piece of Word Art. 

Continuation class “Beyond Images with Words” is a workshop where Shape Poems are used to create unique Collages. 

Examples of Lisa's Cursive Images can be viewed on the Commission Options page.
