Workshop Overview
This workshop will begin by processing a variety of fibers to
make Western-style paper. Using a Hollander beater to break down
fibers, we will explore various ways to form sheets. This will
be followed by an in-depth, practical analysis of drying
techniques. Then we will dive into an exploration of pigments,
natural dyes, and other color techniques both wet and dry paper.
The outcome will be beautiful, individualized sheets and
standalone paper art pieces with an ethereal, elemental
presence. Looking at paper through a historical lens, we will
talk about the importance of creating unique substrates and
discuss ways of bringing papermaking into a variety of studio
practices and set-ups. This workshop is perfect for new
papermakers, and it will also be informative for those with
experience.
