Learn to give new life to the discarded by transforming ordinary household recycling, kitchen waste, and foraged botanicals into textural handmade paper that tells a compelling story. In this intimate 3-hour workshop, we’ll push boundaries and move beyond the notion that paper is flat, creating low-relief sculpture and tactile, highly textured forms – all with tools and techniques you can employ at home.
Workshop Highlights
Learn my simple method: Master a simple, low-water method using a household blender to macerate recycled paper pulp, creating texture and form with unexpected items.
Essential Rhythms: Connect with the rhythm of forming, pressing, casting, and drying.
Color and Texture: Discover an easy and no-mess way to incorporate color and botanical texture into your paper.
Your Takeaway: You’ll create 8 to 10 handmade textured papers. Some will be completed and dried during our time together, and you’ll leave with instructions for drying the remainder at home.
Bonus Blueprint: You’ll receive an easy home studio blueprint and the confidence to start creating handmade paper at home.
Studio Environment: This 3-hour workshop is limited to 6 participants in a private, covered outdoor studio in Citrus Heights, ensuring a focused and personalized creative experience.
