Papermaking is an engaging and physical process that you can do right in your own home or workspace. Learn the basic elements of this ancient art as the instructor leads the class through the process of preparing the vat of pulp, pulling a sheet with a mould and deckle, couching the sheet, then pressing the paper. Each student will receive a sheaf of handmade sheets after they have completely dried. Participants should be prepared to get a bit wet as we are all in water up to our elbows. No prior experience necessary.

Paper pulp painting is an art form in which an image or design, using bottles of dyed cotton pulp, can be collaged, poured or molded onto a previously formed sheet of paper. Students will learn the basics of sheet formation, as well as techniques for embellishing bare sheets into works of art.
When dried, the print is actually part of the paper, and can stand alone as a piece of art or can be used in creating a hand-bound book or other mixed media creation. This class will cover various pulp printing techniques, including stencils, collage inclusions, and direct painting. Techniques for making paper at home will also be discussed. Each student will be able to take their handmade sheets home after they have completely dried. No prior experience necessary.
Be prepared to have arms in water and wear comfortable clothing and shoes.
